Abstract

The aim of this review is to present the increased frequency of influenza-associated invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) cases reported from several countries. Classic risk factors or additional immunosuppression may not be observed in affected patients. Therefore, influenza-associated IPA might be diagnosed with a delay and consequently result in worse patient outcomes.
