What Is Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis?
Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is an extremely challenging condition, though it can be managed when appropriately diagnosed. In essence, it is an allergy to a fungus called aspergilus, but the response to the mold is specific to the airway, and people may not show the allergy elsewhere. This response can be dramatic and result in permanent lung damage without treatment.
