摘要

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis usually occurs in children with underlying airway disease such as asthma and cystic fibrosis. While the colonization and infection of preexisting tuberculosis lesions by aspergillus species is well known, occurrence of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis following pulmonary tuberculosis in children has not been reported yet. Here, an 11-year-old girl who developed allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis following active pulmonary tuberculosis is reported and the mechanisms of causality are also speculated.
