Invasive aspergillosis is a serious infection in which Aspergillus invades lung tissue and, in some cases, can spread beyond the lungs. It occurs mainly in people who are severely ill, have significant immune suppression or are undergoing complex medical treatment.
New to invasive aspergillosis? Start with our main guide to invasive aspergillosis, which explains who is at risk, how the infection is diagnosed and how it is treated.
This hub brings together information about invasive and acute forms of aspergillosis, including invasive pulmonary aspergillosis, Aspergillus infection associated with severe respiratory illness, infections outside the lungs, and localised Aspergillus infections affecting sites such as the ear, eye and nails.
Most people living with chronic aspergillosis will not develop invasive aspergillosis. Having chronic pulmonary aspergillosis does not in itself mean that the infection will spread through the body.
