Abstract
"Although infrequent, lung cancer can be disguised by the synchronous presence of a fungal infection, most notably by the Aspergillus species. Some cases of incidental adenocarcinoma diagnosed during surgical treatment of pulmonary aspergillosis have been reported, showing just how these fungi can hide more serious, underlying pathology. This review aims to raise awareness about this occurrence to accelerate the correct etiological diagnosis, establish a timely oncological treatment, and improve the overall morbidity and mortality in lung cancer patients. In addition, we present a rather alluring case of concurrent adenocarcinoma and Aspergillus infection to display how these two entities can appear together."
