Fansidar hypersensitivity pneumonitis

British Journal of Diseases of the Chest, 1987
We report a subject who had Fansidar prescribed to him for the purpose of malaria prophylaxis. This agent is a combination of pyrimethamine and sulphadoxine. He subsequently developed severe hypersensitivity pneumonia and required mechanical ventilation. We believe that sulphadoxine was responsible for his illness.

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2004
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), also known as extrinsic allergic alveolitis, is a granulomatous, inflammatory disease of the lungs caused by the inhalation of antigenic organic particles or fumes. The disease may present as an acute, subacute, or chronic illness.

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis in a beautician

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 2016
A 52‐year‐old non‐smoking beautician using a skincare device spraying steam and ozone (a “vapozone” facial steamer) was referred for progressive dyspnea and dry cough during working periods. Although spirometry was normal, she had decreased diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide, bronchiolitis with air trapping on high‐resolution CT scan ...

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1993
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is an important but underdiagnosed form of interstitial lung disease. Its clinical hallmark is recurrent or chronic pulmonary symptoms of variable severity associated with an array of systemic symptoms but without extrapulmonary structural abnormalities.

Chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

American Journal of Surgical Pathology, 2006
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is traditionally divided on clinical grounds into acute, subacute, and chronic stages. Most biopsy specimens come from patients in the subacute stage, in which there is a relatively mild, usually peribronchiolar, chronic interstitial inflammatory infiltrate, accompanied in most cases by poorly formed interstitial ...

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Critical Reviews in Clinical Laboratory Sciences, 2002
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is a group of immunologically mediated lung diseases caused by the inhalation of environmental agents in susceptible individuals. Most HP patients are non-smokers and have been exposed to organic dusts from vegetable or animal products. Some HP cases are associated with exposures to relatively simple chemical compounds.

Familial hypersensitivity pneumonitis

The American Journal of Medicine, 1975
Two families are described in which seven members of a total of 19 were found to have hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to exposure to avian antigens. Diagnosis was made on the basis of characteristic roentgenologic changes together with respiratory function and immunologic studies.

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Disease-a-Month, 1991
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis or extrinsic allergic alveolitis is an immunologically mediated lung disease caused by repeated inhalations of organic antigens. The basic histologic lesion consists of a diffuse mononuclear cell infiltration of alveolar wall, alveoli, terminal bronchioles, and neighboring interstitium. The inflammation is often followed by

Pathogenesis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Current Opinion in Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 2004
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is a group of immunologically mediated diseases caused by an abnormal response to a wide variety of inhaled antigens. Its pathogenesis is complex and involves many immunological concepts. This review discusses recent advances in our understanding of the pathogenesis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis.Over the last 3 years ...

Evaluation for hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1982
Dr. Patterson: Hypersensitivity pneumonitis has become increasingly recognized as an occupational or home environmental disease. 1 A clearly defined exposure obtained by history evaluation as in farmers' lung or pigeon breeders' disease may lead to establishment of a diagnosis with reasonable certainty.
