Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in cystic fibrosis.
The current standards of care for allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in patients with cystic fibrosis are presented. Recent studies have increased understanding of the inflammatory process that occurs in cystic fibrosis patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. This has resulted in more precise diagnostic criteria that facilitate more timely diagnosis and treatment of ABPA in ...
متن کاملAllergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis complicating cystic fibrosis
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, known to be associated with cystic fibrosis in older patients, occurred in 7 young atopic children with cystic fibrosis. The diagnosis was suggested by the onset of, or the increase in, asthmatic symptoms accompanied by major chest x-ray changes ranging from total collapse of a lung or lobe to extensive but changing areas of consolidation. Each of the ch...

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a Th2 hypersensitivity lung disease in response to Aspergillus fumigatus that affects asthmatic and cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. Sensitization to A. fumigatus is common in both atopic asthmatic and CF patients, yet only 1-2% of asthmatic and 7-9% of CF patients develop ABPA. ABPA is characterized by wheezing and pulmonary infiltrates which may...

In orderto determine the incidence ofallergic bronchopulmonary aspei llosis (ABPA) in patients with cyslic fibrosis (CF), we reviewed the records of 236 patients followed up at the Duke CF Center. Sixty patients (25 percent) had colonies ofAspergiliusjismigatus. Thesepafients were older and had more severe disease as assessed by lower Shwachman-Kulczycld (S-K) scores than the patients who did n...
متن کاملAllergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in cystic fibrosis. A European epidemiological study. Epidemiologic Registry of Cystic Fibrosis.
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a disease resulting from a hypersensitivity response to Aspergillus fumigatus, although the pathogenesis of the disease is unknown and its prevalence in cystic fibrosis (CF) is still poorly defined. Data from the Epidemiologic Registry of Cystic Fibrosis (ERCF) on 12,447 CF patients gathered from 224 CF centres in nine European countries were an...
