Imaging findings
Progression from a persistent parahilar consolidation to a cavitary lesion with focal aneurysmal dilation of the pulmonary artery. Histology confirmed invasive fungal infection (likely Mucor).
Key takeaways
In diabetic patients, consider invasive fungal infections (like Mucor) for persistent consolidations that cavitate or involve large vessels, even in non-neutropenic patients.
