DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY OF BRONCHOALVEOLAR LAVAGE IN THROMBOCYTOPENIC HAEMATOLOGICAL PATIENTS FOR ASPERGILLOSIS DIAGNOSIS: A MONOCENTRIC, RETROSPECTIVE EXPERIENCE.

DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY OF BRONCHOALVEOLAR LAVAGE IN THROMBOCYTOPENIC HAEMATOLOGICAL PATIENTS FOR ASPERGILLOSIS DIAGNOSIS: A MONOCENTRIC, RETROSPECTIVE EXPERIENCE.

Background: although bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) measurements of galactomannan antigen (GM) seems to be more sensitive than serum testing to detect invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA), a consensus on the most appropriate diagnostic threshold of the BAL GM test is still unclear. Moreover, there i...
