Hypersensitivity pneumonitis resulting from Aspergillus fumigatus in a greenhouse
Arch Environ Health.
1993 Jul-Aug.
Abstract
A 57-y-old female who had cultivated vegetables in a plastic greenhouse developed a case of hypersensitivity pneumonitis from Aspergillus fumigatus. This report exemplifies a potential hazard caused by a thermotolerant fungus, A. fumigatus, in a poorly constructed greenhouse.
