Presentation
In this report, the author presents a case of disseminated pulmonary candidiasis in a young man with hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome. His chest radiograph showed reticulonodular opacities in both lungs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The case is presented here due to unique possible association of pulmonary candidiasis with intake of high doses of inhaled corticosteroids. [lungindia.com]
The aim of this paper is to present the case of a 58-year-old patient with refractory Hodgkin disease, focusing on infectious complication after subsequent lines of chemotherapy. [termedia.pl]
Objectives: We set out to determine the prevalence of Pulmonary candidiasis by isolating Candida species from the sputum of HIV sero-positive patient’s presenting to hospital with complaint of cough for more than two weeks and related the level of CD [ajol.info]

Prognosis
Therefore the prevalence and prognosis of pulmonary fungal infection has been difficult to evaluate. The objective of this study is to determine the utility of bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage for diagnosis of fungal infections. [aspergillus.org.uk]
A decreasing titer indicates a good prognosis, while an increasing titer has a poor prognosis. When you consider Cryptococcosis, think of Capsules and CNS disease. [microbiologybook.org]
Prognosis This is highly variable in cases of opportunistic infection, depending on the cause and degree of immunocompromise, comorbidities and speed of recognition of pulmonary fungal infection. [patient.info]
Nonmolecular fungal markers in serum or other biological samples represent a noninvasive diagnostic tool, which can help in therapeutic decisions. [1] The individual prognosis is often linked to the severity and outcome of the underlying disease and to [emedicine.medscape.com]

Despite antifungal prophylaxis with fluconazole, IFD of mixed etiology with the presence of Candida glabrata and Aspergillus fumigatus was diagnosed. [termedia.pl]

Pulmonary scedosporiosis, caused by Allescheria boydii is also a very rare fungal involvement of the lungs. [3] Pathophysiology [ edit ] Fungi typically enter the lung with inhalation of their spores, though they can reach the lung through the bloodstream [en.wikipedia.org]
