Aspergillomas developed in pulmonary cavities produced by blastomycosis in 2 patients within two years of apparently successful treatment of blastomycosis with intravenously administered amphotericin B. The patients have been followed up for 76 and 12 months, respectively. Aside from the appearance of minimal hemoptysis in both, the presence of aspergillomas was not deleterious to these patients.
