Disseminated Aspergillosis due to Aspergillus niger in Immunocompetent Patient: A Case Report

Abstract

Invasive aspergillosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. Many cases of pulmonary, cutaneous, cerebral, and paranasal sinus aspergillosis in immunocompetent patient were defined in literature but disseminated aspergillosis is very rare. Here we present an immunocompetent case with extrapulmonary disseminated aspergillosis due to Aspergillus niger , totally recovered after effective antifungal treatment with voriconazole.
