We report a fatal case of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis caused by voriconazole-resistant Aspergillus tubingensis in a patient with solid tumor but without severe immunosuppression. A high index of suspicion for invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, coupled with molecular identification of species and resistance genes, may facilitate early initiation of appropriate treatment.
