Abstract
Isolation of non-Aspergillus molds in the BAL of LTx recipients may not be associated with the development of invasive disease, irrespective of anti-fungal prophylaxis. These results suggest that initiation of targeted anti-fungal prophylaxis after isolation of non-Aspergillus molds from BAL may not be warranted.
