Abstract
Primary laryngeal aspergillosis is a rare condition. Only a few cases have been reported in the past years. Most of them have been reported in healthy patients or with a mild immunocompromised state. We report a case of primary laryngeal aspergillosis in a solid-organ transplant recipient (SOT), an infection not previously described in this population; we reviewed the published literature in all populations.
