The discontinuity repeatedly haemoptysis with a little (20 ml/time) were 27 cases. A correct diagnosis of aspergilloma was made in 60% cases (n = 24) before surgery. Lobectomy was performed in 39 cases, and unilateral lung removal in 1 case. Following surgery, 39 cases were cured, and 1 case died.Pulmonary aspergilloma occurs mostly in middle-aged patients with cavitary or bronchiectatic pulmonary tuberculosis.
