Abstract
the air crescent sign is a characteristic imaging finding of aspergilloma, it can be found in other entities including tuberculosis 2 , neoplasms (particularly bronchial carcinoma), Rasmussen’s aneurysm, and intracavitary clots. Other, rarer causes include foreign bodies, thick pus, dehydrated caseous material, teratoma, and hydatid disease 3,4 .
