Sensitization to A fumigatus in subjects with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.

We found a significant occurrence of Aspergillus sensitization and chronic infection in non-CF bronchiectasis, especially in TB bronchiectasis. In addition to Aspergillus sensitization, investigations for chronic Aspergillus infection should be routinely performed in non-CF bronchiectasis, both at diagnosis and during follow-up.
