Abstract Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is an inflammatory disease induced by exaggerated immune responses to Aspergillus species. Although ABPA has a high recurrence (48%), its instances with sequential isolation of distinct Aspergillus species are sporadic. Only one case report has documented the metachronous isolation of Aspergillus fumigatus and Aspergillus flavus. However, no reported cases of metachronous isolation involving three distinct Aspergillus species exist. Herein, we report a novel case of a 47‐year‐old Japanese man with sequential metachronous isolation of A. flavus, A. terreus, and A. fumigatus. Initially presenting with symptoms of productive cough and pulmonary infiltration, the patient experienced two relapses following treatment with oral prednisolone. Adjustments in therapy, including voriconazole and a tailored corticosteroid regimen, resulted in significant improvement without relapse for over 6 months. This case report highlights the challenges and successful management of ABPA involving multiple Aspergillus species. |
