Sarcoidosis or Extrinsic Allergic Alveolitis?

Respiration, 1981
Of 46 patients with sarcoidosis, there was an exposure to type III allergens in 14 subjects. On closer examination of 2 patients diagnosed as having sarcoidosis there were distinct features suggesting farmer's lung too. Inhalative challenge recording airway resistance, CO transfer factor and other clinical features confirmed farmer's lung disease in ...

Occupational extrinsic allergic alveolitis

Imaging, 2003
Extrinsic allergic alveolitis (EAA) is an immune disease in which certain antigens provoke granulomatous inflammation in the distal airways and alveoli of susceptible subjects.Bird breeder's lung, farmer's lung and humidifier lung are the commonest clinical EAA syndromes in the UK.Acute EAA presents as breathlessness, fever and malaise occurring 4 h to

Trapped Air in Extrinsic Allergic Alveolitis

Respiration, 1980
Non-ventilated lung volume (trapped air) during tidal breathing and several other lung function parameters were determined in 19 patients with extrinsic allergic alveolitis, most of them with farmer's lung, and in 28 non-smoking healthy subjects. The trapped air was significantly larger (p < 0.01) in the patients (mean 0.73 litres) than in normal ...

Histologic Diagnosis of Extrinsic Allergic Alveolitis

The American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 1988
Twenty-seven patients with open-lung biopsy findings consistent with extrinsic allergic alveolitis (hypersensitivity pneumonitis) were studied. In only one case had the diagnosis been considered prior to the biopsy. Among the 27 patients, a causative exposure was subsequently identified in 10, and no apparent cause could be found in the remaining 17 ...

Extrinsic allergic bronchiolo‐alveolitis in children

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1980
SummaryFifteen children, 6–14 years old, who were heavily exposed to pigeon droppings, presented with cough, chills and breathlessnes on mild exertion. Twelve gave immediate positive skin test reactions to pigeon droppings. Ten of the fifteen also gave a late (Arthus) reaction, and seven gave a positive delayed reaction which was maximal at 24–72 hr ...

Extrinsic Allergic Alveolitis

1994
The lung is the site of a variety of complex inflammatory reactions. In many instances the inflammation is a normal reaction against various infectious agents, such as bacteria and viruses, or is a response to necrotic tissue, such as infarcted lung parenchyma or degenerating tumor.
