Patients with Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) face the highest lifelong risk of invasive aspergillosis (IA). Effective management of IA in this population requires meticulous care and a well-coordinated, multidisciplinary approach. This includes primary antifungal prophylaxis, timely evaluation and treatment of suspected IA, and the use of diagnostic methods to make a causative diagnosis. In this review, we aim to assess recent advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of IA in patients with CGD.
