The animal died and the body was sent to the Ornithopathology Laboratory. Histopathological examination revealed multifocal areas of mixed inflammatory infiltrate associated with septate fungal hyphae, with dichotomous branching at 45\u00ba and a thickness between 2 and 5\u00a0\u03bcm in the lungs. Microbiological culture confirmed that this was a case of aspergillosis. After a few weeks, the contact animal was brought to the university with respiratory symptoms. The animal underwent imaging tests, and after changes were found on X-rays, it was treated with antifungal medication and showed clinical improvement. Ante-mortem diagnosis and treatment of aspergillosis are still very difficult, so prevention remains the best approach. This highlights the urgent need for better diagnostic tools and the establishment of more effective therapeutic strategies.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11259-026-11419-6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,22]],"date-time":"2026-07-22T04:14:12Z","timestamp":1784693652000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Diagnostic case report of aspergillosis (Aspergillus sp.)
