摘要：

Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) is predominantly found alongside cavitating or bullous lung diseases. Although pulmonary embolism may cause cavitation, an association with CPA has not been well described. We describe a case of CPA in a 79-year-old female following bilateral pulmonary emboli. The clinical implications are numerous, including the dilemma of anticoagulation. This link suggests that a lower threshold for suspecting CPA following pulmonary embolus is required, even in the absence of other respiratory disease.
