Recently, new risk groups for the development of aspergillosis have emerged—patients with influenza- or COVID-19-ssociated pulmonary aspergillosis. The rise and spread of antifungal re sistances have also become a clinical concern in some geographic areas and have drawn the attention of clinicians due to difficulties in treating these infections. In this paper, a snapshot of these issues is presented, emphasizing these novel clinical and laboratorial challenges in the aspergillosis field and focusing on their actual relevance.engAspergillusInvasive AspergillosisAntifungal ResistancesCAPACOVID-associated Pulmonary AspergillosisIAPAInfluenza-Associated Pulmonary AspergillosisInfecções Sistémicas e ZoonosesNovel Clinical and Laboratorial Challenges in Aspergillosisjournal article10.3390/microorganisms10020259
