This paper reports on diagnostic and therapeutic management of pulmonary invasive fungal disease (IFD) in a child with relapsed acute myeloid leukaemia, undergoing chemotherapy followed by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Surgical management with resection of the involved lung tissue was based on the location of fungal infiltrates close to large circulatory vessels. After examination of resected pulmonary tissue, a diagnosis of proven IFD was done. This case report is an example that aspergillosis is usually the cause for pulmonary IFD. Pharmacotherapy of pulmonary IFD should be based on compounds with good penetration to lung tissue: amphotericin B lipid form or voriconazole.

Pneumonia is one of the most frequent cause of death after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The objective of this review is to present various aspects of pneumonia in this group of patients, with focus on invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and cytomegalovirus disease, being the most frequent etiological causes of pneumonia after HSCT. The review is aimed at practical approach to diagnostic and therapeutic management of pneumonia after HSCT with special attention to: definitions of infections and level of diagnosis of upper and lower respiratory tract infections, including issues specific for invasive fungal disease, pneumocystosis, cytomegalovirus disease, community acquired respiratory viral infections and bacterial pneumonia. Another topics analyzed in the review are: epidemiology and risk factors for development of infection and risk of death due to pneumonia; invasive and non-invasive diagnostics, including imaging and laboratory biomarkers; methods of pharmacological and environmental prophylaxis and specific targeted therapy of pneumonia after HSCT.
