Remission rate of leukemia has been improved by development of recent antileukemic chemotherapy. But opportunistic infection in secondary immunodeficiency has increased. Especially pulmonary mycoses often occurs and its prognosis is poor. But if patient with leukemia complicates pulmonary mycoses, it should be cured as soon as possible and antileukemic chemotherapy should be continued. We successfully performed surgical treatment for 2 pulmonary aspergillosis, which were complicated in stage of remission induction of acute leukemia.
