JK Science Journal of Medical Education and Research. 2020 Apr; 2020 Apr: 80-830972-1177http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/211016A descriptive study was conducted in the Department of Respiratory Medicine in a tertiary care center ofAmbala. Aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of fungal infection among patient presents withsputum negative old treated pulmonary tuberculosis. The study was carried out among 39 post treated casesof Pulmonary Tuberculosis, whose sputum or bronchial wash showed isolation of Aspergillus. Demographicdetails and clinical findings were noted. Data collected were entered into Excel spreadsheet and quantitativedata were expressed as number and percentage. The presentation of pulmonary aspergillosis in treated casesof pulmonary TB varies from aspergilloma (51.3%) to chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis (38.4%) toallergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (10.3%). Hemoptysis (79.5%) of varying severity was the mostcommon symptom. Most of the patients were farmers by occupation. The most common species wereAspergillus fumigatus; others were Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus terrus in 23.2%,20.5%, and 12.8 %, respectively. Here we conclude that Aspergillus fumigatus was the most frequentlyisolated species in our region and aspergilloma was the commonest pulmonary manifestation as post-TBsequel.ABPACPAAspergillomaPulmonary TuberculosisJournal ArticleIndiaDepartment of Respiratory Medicine, Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research, Mullana, Ambala, Haryana- India
