Tuberk Toraks. 2022 Jun;70(2):215-219. doi: 10.5578/tt.20229815.ABSTRACTAllergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a lung disease characterized by a hypersensitivity reaction to Aspergillus fumigatus. Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is characterized by increased serum IgE levels, peripheral blood eosinophilia and radiographic pulmonary infiltrates, central bronchiectasis, and mucus plugs. Mepolizumab, a monoclonal interleukin (IL)-5 antibody, reduces eosinophilic inflammation and improves symptom control in severe eosinophilic asthma. A 74-year-old male patient arrived at our allergy outpatient clinic compla...
