Exophiala pisciphila: a novel cause of allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis. [PDF]
Allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) is a hypersensitivity reaction to fungal antigens, which may particularly plague uncontrolled asthmatics. Non-aspergillus fungal organisms may be implicated and may elicit a more severe immunologic response. Exophiala pisciphila, a marine organism, has not been reported as a culprit yet.

Misinterpretation of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis/allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis due to diverse characteristics in different clinical stages. [PDF]
Allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) is a complex pulmonary disorder caused by a hyperimmune response to the endobronchial growth of certain fungi. This study aims to aid physicians in better understanding the need for earlier recognition of ABPM.Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of ABPM after evaluation were analyzed retrospectively.

Spontaneous Regression of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Mycosis Due to Curvularia lunata. [PDF]
Allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) is a pulmonary hypersensitivity disease mainly caused by Aspergillus fumigatus. The mainstay treatment for ABPM is systemic corticosteroid therapy. A 25-year-old man presented with pulmonary infiltrates. His peripheral eosinophil, total serum IgE, and serum Aspergillus-specific IgE levels were elevated.
