Description
Hua Li and a large team report a 2026 journal article on removing fungal balls from damaged lungs with a scope instead of relying on medicine alone. After tuberculosis heals, leftover lung cavities can grow balls of Aspergillus fungus that cause cough and bleeding. Antifungal drugs often fail because symptoms return once the drugs stop.
At Guangzhou Chest Hospital, thirty-two patients got drugs alone while fifty-six got drugs plus scope-guided removal. Clearance of the fungal ball was just 14.8 percent with drugs alone but one hundred percent with the combined approach. The combined group also needed shorter drug courses. Having more than one cavity raised relapse risk roughly seven-fold in their analysis.
