Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To bring readers up to date on recent reports, both clinical and basic understanding, on hypersensitivity pneumonitis. RECENT FINDINGS Although many antigens and environmental settings have already been described as sources of this hyperimmune pulmonary disease, the literature continues to bring forth other conditions that can cause hypersensitivity pneumonitis. We also high...
متن کاملHypersensitivity pneumonitis.
Clinical manifestations of hypersensitivity pneumonitis may closely mimic other interstitial lung diseases, and the disease onset is usually insidious. High-resolution computed tomography and bronchoalveolar lavage are the sensitive and characteristic diagnostic tests for hypersensitivity pneumonitis. The relevant antigen to hypersensitivity pneumonitis cannot be identified in up to 20% to 30% ...
متن کاملHypersensitivity Pneumonitis: A Comprehensive Review.
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), also known as extrinsic allergic alveolitis, is a complex pulmonary syndrome mediated by the immune system and caused by inhalation of a wide variety of antigens to which the individual has been previously sensitized. The pathobiology of the disease is not fully understood, but in addition to the triggers that initiate the disease, host/genetic factors are lik...

symptoms recovered within few days. The transbronchial biopsies in the patients described by Lerch et al. [1] and Thornburg et al. [2] revealed a nonspecific, hypersensitivity pneumonitis (compatible with toxic drug-induced damage). Immunosuppressive therapy with steroids induced a rapid relief of all symptoms in all 3 cases. Infectious cause of the pulmonary infiltrates could be excluded by br...
متن کاملChronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HSP) is a common interstitial lung disease resulting from inhalation of a large variety of antigens by susceptible individuals. The disease is best classified as acute and chronic. Chronic HSP can be fibrosing or not. Fibrotic HSP has a large differential diagnosis and has a worse prognosis. The most common etiologies for HSP are reviewed. Diagnostic criteria are p...
