Pulmonary Eosinophilia [PDF]

Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2008
Eosinophils may infiltrate the lung tissue, thus impairing gas exchange and causing several symptoms as dyspnea, fever, and cough. This process may be secondary to several factors, including drugs or parasite migration, or primary (idiopathic). Acute eosinophilic pneumonia is life-threatening and presents frequently in young smokers as an acute ...

Pulmonary eosinophilia

European Journal of Radiology, 1996
The pulmonary eosinophilias are a diverse group of disorders characterised by pulmonary infiltrates, rich in eosinophils usually associated with a peripheral blood eosinophilia. Known causes of pulmonary eosinophilia include fungi--in particular Aspergillus fumigatus, parasites, toxins and drugs. Pulmonary eosinophilias of unknown cause include Löffler'

Pulmonary Eosinophilia in Pulmonary Tuberculosis

Chest, 1992
Three radiologically and bacteriologically confirmed pulmonary tuberculosis patients had eosinophilic pneumonia, as demonstrated by BAL. In two patients, pulmonary eosinophilia was present only at the site of the lesion and the third had eosinophilia in both peripheral blood and lung.

Cryptogenic pulmonary eosinophilias

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1973
SummaryIn the U.K. allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is the cause of pulmonary eosinophilia (PE) in about 80% of the instances. The purpose of this paper is to describe distinctive clinical, immunological, radiological and respiratory functional changes in twenty‐seven cases of PE in whom an aetiological diagnosis was not possible (cryptogenic ...
