Method: We report a case of tracheal aspergilloma causing tracheal obstruction in a patient admitted in the ICU for respiratory distress. The aspergilloma occurred in a tracheal stent implanted during tracheal allograft for tracheal cancer. A combination of local and systemic antifungal was used with successful result.
Keywords: aspergilloma; aspergillosis; endobronchial; trachea.
