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 ...

Tropical Pulmonary Eosinophilia

Southern Medical Journal, 1990
Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is an unusual pulmonary disorder caused by occult filariasis. Presentation can be varied and can mimic asthma, pulmonary tuberculosis, or atypical pneumonia. We have reported a case of tropical pulmonary eosinophilia mimicking lymphangitic carcinomatosis.

Tropical Pulmonary Eosinophilia

Annual Review of Medicine, 1992
Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is one of the many PIE syndromes [pulmonary infiltrates with eosinophilia (of the peripheral blood)]. It is caused by immunologic hyperresponsiveness to the filarial parasites Wuchereria bancrofti or Brugia malayi.

Cryptogenic pulmonary eosinophilia

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 1976
SummaryThe clinical and immunological features of fifteen cases of cryptogenic pulmonary eosinophilia are reported. There were ten women (mean age 35·4 years) and five men (mean age 42 years). Eight gave a previous history of asthma and seven had none. Thirteen of the fifteen patients had negative skin test to common allergens.

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.

Hypereosinophilic syndrome in the differential diagnosis of pulmonary infiltrates with eosinophilia.

Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology, 2018
OBJECTIVE To describe key diagnostic considerations in patients with pulmonary infiltrates with eosinophilia, with a special emphasis on raising awareness of hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES), a disease that often involves the lungs and prompts ...

Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia

Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1950
Abstract Tropical pulmonary eosinophilia is one member of a large group of pulmonary eosinophilias, some of known, some of unknown cause. The history and geography of the disease are reviewed. The clinical features of a personal series of 100 cases are described, along with the results of pathological and X-ray studies on them.

[Pulmonary infiltrations with eosinophilia (pulmonary eosinophilia)].

Pneumologie (Stuttgart, Germany), 1992
The pulmonary eosinophilias are characterised by radiographic lung shadows with either a peripheral blood eosinophilia of more than 450/microliter or histologic abnormalities consisting of both interstitial and intraalveolar accumulations of eosinophils and macrophages.

A gut commensal protozoan determines respiratory disease outcomes by shaping pulmonary immunity.

Cell
The underlying mechanisms used by the intestinal microbiota to shape disease outcomes of the host are poorly understood. Here, we show that the gut commensal protozoan, Tritrichomonas musculis (T.mu), remotely shapes the lung immune landscape to ...

Maloprlm-Induced Pulmonary Eosinophilia

Chest, 1993
A 47-year-old woman developed pulmonary eosinophilia from the use of maloprim as malaria prophylaxis. The diagnosis was confirmed by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and transbronchial lung biopsy. Her condition improved with drug withdrawal and steroid therapy.
