[Spontaneous course of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis]

This case report illustrates the spontaneous course of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA). The x-ray images cover a time-frame of nearly 20 years. All of the main criteria of ABPA are fulfilled. Despite intermittent oral corticosteroid treatment, recurrent eosinophilic infiltrates of the lungs occurred. New strategies in diagnosis and treatment of ABPA are discussed.
