Invasive isolated renal aspergilloma in an immunocompetent host is rare, and few cases have been reported in the literature. It is a unique entity encountered by a urologist that can lead to catastrophic complications like end-stage renal disease. Infective pathology may closely resemble renal mass, and timely, appropriate investigations are obligatory for early intervention. This case report highlights the importance of strong consideration of renal fungal infections in the differential diagnosis of a renal mass with atypical radiological findings in an immunocompetent host. Meticulous decision-making and appropriate management help to prevent disastrous sequelae.
