Imaging findings

Large aspergilloma with associated cavities and bronchiectasis. Contrast shows intense opacification of the pulmonary artery from systemic bronchial artery circulation (white smoke effect).

Key takeaways

This demonstrates extensive shunting and collateral flow between systemic bronchial arteries and the pulmonary circulation, often secondary to chronic inflammatory or infectious states like remote tuberculosis.
