ABSTRACT
Aspergillus species are primarily pulmonary pathogens but can involve extra-pulmonary organs by angioinvasive properties. Isolated renal aspergillosis is extremely rare even among the immunocompromised patients. Recently, we experienced a case of isolated renal aspergillosis presenting gross hematuria and renal mass-like lesion in a patient with acute myelocytic leukemia, who was treated with systemic amphotericin B and oral itraconazole after nephrectomy. To our knowledge, this is the first report of isolated renal aspergillosis in a patient with acute leukemia receiving chemotherapy. Here, we report this case with a review of literature.
