RESUMEN
La aspergilosis invasiva es una complicación que se presenta
con mayor frecuencia en pacientes con inmunosupresión.
La aspergilosis traqueobronquial es una complicación muy
rara con mínimas manifestaciones clínicas. Se informa de
una paciente de 53 años con diagnóstico de púrpura trombocitopénica
trombótica (PTT) con inmunosupresión por
el uso de esteroides y anti CD-20, que presentó hemoptisis
en 2 ocasiones; la segunda fue masiva y ocasionó la muerte.
Previo al segundo evento de la hemoptisis se logró realizar
broncoscopía, que mostró pseudomembranas y ulceración
del epitelio bronquial. En el postmortem se logró documentar
la presencia de
Aspergillus tanto en la biopsia como en
el cultivo. Es de gran importancia la sospecha y un reconocimiento
temprano de esta patología en pacientes con
inmunosupresión por su alta mortalidad.
