ABSTRACT
Aspergillus is a common saprophytic fungi of the human airways and causes a broad spectrum of diseases, ranging from aspergilloma to invasive aspergillosis. There are few reports on mediastinal aspergilloma without any underlying pulmonary disease or immunocompromise. Herein, we report a case of mediastinal aspergilloma that we experienced and treated by thoracoscopic resection and oral antifungal medication.
