Aspergillosis
� Aspergillus fuminatus and other Aspergillus species
� pulmonary aspergillosis:
1)allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis – bronchi and bronchioles are infiltrated with lymphocytes, plasma cells , eosinophils

Mucormycosis (Zygomycosis)
� Rhizopus, Lichthemia, Cunninghamella, …
� produce severe, necrotizing, invasive opportunistic infection
� Fatal Gastrointestinal Mucormycosis in an Infant
� “rhinocerebral mucormycosis” – proliferate in nasal sinuses, invade surrounding tissues and extend to facial and brain / nasal turbinates are covered by black crust, underlying tissue is friable and hemorrhagic / hyphae grow into arteries, septic infarction, hemorrhagic encephalitis
� “pulmonary mucormycosis” – resemble to aspergillosis
� “subcutaneous mucormycosis” – produce an gradually enlarging, hard inflammatory mass (shoulder, trunk, buttock or thigh)

Pneumocystis pneumonia
� Pneumocystis jiroveci
� common in AIDS patients or those who treated withcorticosteroids or cytotoxic therapy
� fungi reproduce in associated with alveolar type 1 liningcells, cause progressive consolidation, alveoli contain frothyeosinophilic material (alveolar macrophage, cysts, andtrophozoites), in newborns alveolar septa are thickening bylymphoid cells and macrophages (plasma cell pneumonia)
� fever and progressive shortness of breath, exacerbated byexertion with nonreproductive cough, dyspnea, radiographsshow diffuse pulmonary process
� Diag.: Bronchoscopy, sputum induction

Penicilliosis
� Penicillium marneffei
� major risk for infection is HIV/AIDS, TB, corticosteroid treatment, or lymphoproloferation diseases
� fungemia, skin lesions, systemic involvement of multiple organs, especially reticuloendothelial system
� can observe papules, pustules or rashes
