A RARE CASE OF PULMONARY ASPERGILLOMA

Pulmonary aspergilloma is unprecedented disorder affecting lung parenchyma in already existing cavity in healed pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Typically, it is resulting from Aspergillus fumigates leading to development of fungal ball. Common presenting complaints are Haemoptysis, Dyspnoea, Cough, Chest pain and Fever. We are reporting a case of Pulmonary aspergilloma a sequel of Pulmonary tuberculosis, has been recognized on basis of clinical findings, chest X-ray, CT thorax in which Fungal ball is seen in pre-existing cavity. It has been managed with antifungal drug Amphotericin B and Itraconazole. It must be differentiated from different clinical entity specifically Lung carcinoma on basis of relevant examination and research to treat successfully

A VERY INFREQUENT ASSOCIATION OF WILLIAM-BEURAN SYNDROME AND TETRALOGY OF FALLOT

WB-S Autosomal Dominant Disorder is the most common genetic disorder. We report a case of 20 year old with infrequent association of WBS and TOF. Clinical examination and ECHO confirmed TOF, WB-S was suspected based on the clinical signs used in the scoring system of WB-S which were described by AAP(2001), FISH study was performed in this patient because of having more than 3 clinical signs of WB-S and FISH study showed 7q11.23 deletion and remains the gold standard laboratory investigation for WB-S.
