Prognosis of Aspergillosis

About prognosis: The 'prognosis' of Aspergillosis usually refers to the likely outcome of Aspergillosis. The prognosis of Aspergillosis may include the duration of Aspergillosis, chances of complications of Aspergillosis, probable outcomes, prospects for recovery, recovery period for Aspergillosis, survival rates, death rates, and other outcome possibilities in the overall prognosis of Aspergillosis. Naturally, such forecast issues are by their nature unpredictable.

Prognosis for Aspergillosis: If severe granulocytopenia persists, mortality rate can be very high (up to 100% in patients with cerebral abscesses). Patient outcome depends on resolution of granulocytopenia and early institution of effective antifungal drug therapy. 1
