UNASSIGNED: Aspergilloma results from the development, inside preexisting pulmonary cavities, of aspergillus spores. It is most commonly manifested by hemoptysis. The goal of this retrospective study is to report our surgical experience of this disease. From January 2004 to December 2008, 35 @entity1 underwent surgery at the same center for @entity358 . We examined the epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic, and outcome data. The @entity1 ' median age was 43.37 years (range: 20-70 years), 28 were male. The average time to consultation was 19.35 months (1-120 months), and all @entity1 had a history of @entity1907 . Hemoptysis was the symptom observed most often, in 54.3% of @entity1 , followed by bronchorrhea. Aspergillus serology was positive for 22 @entity1 . The standard radiological image was found in 20 @entity1 . We performed 14 lobectomies, 1 bilobectomy, 1 segmentectomy, 1 bisegmentectomy, 3 lobectomies with segmentectomies, 1 bilobectomy with segmentectomy, and 14 pleuropneumonectomies. In one case, the pulmonary artery was damaged and repaired. The average duration of intensive care was 3.54 days (2-7 days) and of total hospitalization, 17.33 days (7-48). Complications were: @entity3509 (3 cases), a large air leak (1 case), parietal suppuration (5 cases), and @entity1143 , which was drained (3 cases). There was no postoperative mortality. After 35 months (1-72), one case of recurrent hemoptysis by reinfestation was observed. Three @entity1 died of @entity1576 , one at 6 months and the other two at 1 year after the surgery. Despite the associated morbidity, surgical treatment of @entity358 must be proposed systematically to these subjects presenting hemoptysis.
