[Pulmonary allergic reactions]
Abstract
Allergic diseases of the lungs may affect the airways, the pulmonary parenchyma and the pulmonary vessels. The most relevant representatives are allergic asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, bronchopulmonary aspergillosis and the Churg-Strauss syndrome. The type of allergic reaction and the pathophysiological consequences vary considerably between these entities. New drugs target specific mechanisms based on new insights into the pathogenetic processes of the underlying disease.
