ABSTRACT
A 40-year-old man, a known case of Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, was admitted to the hospital in an unconscious state. In spite of medical treatment, the patient died within two hours of admission. At autopsy, the deceased was found to have aspergillosis involving the interatrial septum, aortic valve and root of the aorta. The rest of the organs were unremarkable. The patient did not show any obvious signs of being immunocompromised. We report this case of isolated cardiac aspergillosis in an apparently healthy individual.
