Aspergilloma in a 10-month-old child with leukemia who presented with a fever. a Initial chest radiograph demonstrates a round opacity (arrowheads) in the right parahilar region. Note the presence of a right chest Port-A-Cath. b Frontal chest radiograph obtained several days later shows a well-defined cavitary lesion (arrowheads) in the right upper lobe surrounded by air. c Contrast-enhanced CT on the same day shows an intracavitary lesion consistent with a fungal ball. No other lesions were present. The final diagnosis was an aspergilloma by cultures and histological analysis after surgical removal
