Abstract EN

Chronic granulomatous disease is a rare phagocytic disorder with recurrent, severe bacterial and fungal infections.

We describe an unusual case of chronic granulomatous disease manifesting as an invasive pulmonary aspergillosis with an obstructive necrotic mass at the right middle bronchus.

The patient was successfully treated with a bronchoscopic intervention for the removal of the obstructive mass and a medical therapy.
