Antemortem diagnosis is difficult and requires a high index of suspicion together with invasive diagnostic techniques. Mucor species exhibit a pronounced affinity to invade vessels; mucormycosis involving the pulmonary vasculature has rarely been documented antemortem, and survival in this context has been rare. In this report, we describe a patient with chronic renal failure and systemic lupus erythematosus who developed extensive invasion of the left main pulmonary artery by mucormycosis. Chest computed tomographic (CT) scans and pulmonary arteriogram demonstrated a massive pseudoaneurysm of the left pulmonary artery; these radiographic findings have not previously been described in mucormycosis. Aggressive combination therapy, employing preoperative amphotericin B (AmB) followed by surgical resection (pneumonectomy) and a full course of AmB, was curative. This favorable outcome supports the role of surgery as adjunctive therapy, and it underscores the need for early diagnosis and aggressive treatment.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1164\/ajrccm\/145.6.1487","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,4,4]],"date-time":"2013-04-04T17:35:46Z","timestamp":1365096946000},"page":"1487-1490","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Pseudoaneurysm of Pulmonary Artery in Mucormycosis: Radiographic Characteristics and Management"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"145","author":[{"given":"Michael J.","family":"Coffey","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"suffix":"III","given":"Joseph","family":"Fantone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mack C.","family":"Stirling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"suffix":"III","given":"Joseph P.","family":"Lynch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1992,6,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"p_3","first-page":"191","author":"Orlando","year":"1986","journal-title":"FL: Grune & Statton"},{"key":"p_6","first-page":"93","volume":"93","year":"1980","journal-title":"Intern Med"},{"key":"p_9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"113","DOI":"10.1097\/00005792-198603000-00004","volume":"65","year":"1986","journal-title":"Medicine (Baltimore)"},{"key":"p_11","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"871","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-77-6-871","volume":"77","year":"1972","journal-title":"Ann Intern Med"},{"key":"p_20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378\/chest.68.1.65"},{"key":"p_27","first-page":"379","volume":"72","year":"1979","journal-title":"Gastroenterol"},{"key":"p_31","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2337\/diabetes.31.12.1109"},{"key":"p_39","first-page":"261","volume":"29","year":"1988","journal-title":"Clin Nephrol"},{"key":"p_49","first-page":"179","year":"1990","journal-title":"Marcel Dekker"},{"key":"p_52","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.117.4.810"},{"key":"p_69","first-page":"519","volume":"116","year":"1977","journal-title":"Dis"},{"key":"p_71","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378\/chest.72.1.92"},{"key":"p_73","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM197201132860208"}],"container-title":["American Review of Respiratory Disease"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ajrccm\/article-pdf\/145\/6\/1487\/67755014\/ajrccm_145_6_1487.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"syndication"},{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ajrccm\/article-pdf\/145\/6\/1487\/67755014\/ajrccm_145_6_1487.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,3]],"date-time":"2026-04-03T06:25:23Z","timestamp":1775197523000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/academic.oup.com\/ajrccm\/article\/145\/6\/1487\/8557821"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[1992,6,1]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1992,6,1]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[1992,6,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1164\/ajrccm\/145.6.1487","relation":{},"ISSN":["0003-0805"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0003-0805","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published-other":{"date-parts":[[1992,6]]},"published":{"date-parts":[[1992,6,1]]}}}
