| Abstract (English): |
Aspergillus tracheobronchitis is a rare form of invasive aspergillosis reported exceptionally in the immunocompetent patient. Its diagnosis is difficult, and the treatments proposed so far are of little effectiveness, all of which constitute a real problem for the health team. We present the case of an immunocompetent 28 yearsold woman, with no epidemiological background, who developed necrotizing tracheobronchitis due to invasive aspergillosis and received voriconazole with local instillation by bronchoscopy with a good response.

La traqueobronquitis aspergilar es una forma poco frecuente de aspergilosis invasiva reportada excepcionalmente en el paciente inmunocompetente. Su diagnóstico es difícil, y los tratamientos propuestos hasta ahora son de escasa efectividad, todo lo cual constituye un verdadero problema para el equipo de salud. Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 28 años, inmunocompetente y sin antecedentes epidemiológicos, que desarrolló traqueobronquitis necrotizante por aspergilosis invasiva y recibió tratamiento con voriconazol con instilación local por broncoscopia con buena respuesta.
