Abstract

Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is an allergic immune response to colonization of the airways with Aspergillus fumigatus. It is a complex disease characterised by cough with mucus production in the form of characteristic plugs and bronchiectasis. Here we report a case of Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in a 58 year old female patient and review its clinical, radiological, cytological features and treatment aspects.
