Article Synopsis
- A 39-year-old male with chronic eosinophilic pneumonia was treated with prednisolone and later experienced fever, headache, and gait issues.
- Laboratory tests revealed smoldering adult T cell leukemia, and imaging showed lung and brain masses with biopsy specimens indicating an Aspergillus-like fungus.
- Despite treatment efforts including the placement of an Ommaya reservoir and antifungal therapy, the patient died, with autopsy confirming disseminated aspergillosis even though routine tests failed to detect viable organisms or markers in the bloodstream.
