Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic airway non-specific inflammatory disease characterised by airway obstruction and alveolar destruction. In recent years, due to the extensive use of antibiotics, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants and other drugs, pulmonary fungal infection in patients with AECOPD, especially aspergillus infection, has gradually increased. The forms of aspergillus infection present in COPD patients include sensitisation, chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) and invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA). This review will summarise diagnostic and treatment of aspergillus in COPD patients.

Keywords: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD); chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA); invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA).
