Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis
Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2002Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a common complication of cystic fibrosis (CF), occurring in approximately 10% of patients and accompanying/accounting for approximately 10% of pulmonary exacerbations. ABPA pathogenesis is dependent upon impaired clearance and dense respiratory epithelial exposure to A fumigatus (Af) spores with ...

Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis in Infants
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1977Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), a serious complication of asthma, is thought to rarely afflict infants. We report three children less than 2 years of age in whom this disorder developed. The major criteria for the diagnosis include: (1) asthma, (2) recurrent pulmonary infiltrations with peripheral eosinophilia, (3) positive aspergillus ...

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in a child
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1970The syndrome of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is exceedingly rare in the United States. We have studied a 9-year-old child who fulfills all of the clinical and laboratory criteria of this syndrome, and who is believed to be the first patient in the pediatric age range reported in this country. Clinical and laboratory features include wheezing

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in children
Pediatrics International, 2015AbstractAllergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a disease of the lungs resulting from a hypersensitivity reaction to spores of Aspergillus fumigatus. Here we report the case of a 13‐year‐old girl with ABPA who presented with productive cough, bronchiectasis and decline in lung function, and review the clinical features and treatment for ...

The treatment of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2003Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a disease characterized by asthma, peripheral eosinophilia, pulmonary infiltrates, hypersensitivity to Aspergillus fumigatus and bronchiectasis. The treatment of ABPA depends on the stage of the disease, and includes following clinical symptoms, serum IgE levels, pulmonary function tests, and chest ...

THERAPY OF ALLERGIC BRONCHOPULMONARY ASPERGILLOSIS
Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 1998The management of ABPA depends on the extent and stage of the disease. Underlying asthma should be controlled with environmental changes, pharmaco- and immunotherapy. Baseline examinations and evaluations of pulmonary function, airway and parenchymal anatomy, and serum total IgE levels are important and should be re-evaluated based on the clinical ...

Lymphocytes in allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2003Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a hypersensitivity lung disease mediated by an allergic late-phase inflammatory response to Aspergillus fumigatus antigens. ABPA is characterized by markedly elevated Aspergillus-specific and total IgE levels and eosinophilia, and manifested by wheezing, pulmonary infiltrates and bronchiectasis and ...

Cytology of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis
Diagnostic Cytopathology, 1993AbstractThe cytologic features of a case of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) are reported and the literature reviewed. The bronchial brushing smears in this case showed mucus that contained laminated aggregates of eosinophils with scattered Charcot‐Leyden crystals and fungal hyphae.
