Bronchocentric granulomatosis and pulmonary echinococcosis
The American Review of Respiratory Disease
|August 1, 1982
Abstract:
Bronchocentric granulomatosis is probably a nonspecific pathologic reaction to various types of intrabronchial agents. The presence of noninvasive fungi has been demonstrated in the airways of asthmatic patients with bronchocentric granulomatosis. However, an etiologic agent has not yet been identified in the respiratory tract of patients without asthma. In the present report, a patient without asthma but with bronchocentric granulomatosis and pulmonary echinococcosis is described.
