Case in brief

A patient was evaluated for allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM), an airway hypersensitivity disorder that can be caused by fungi other than Aspergillus. The patient met the diagnostic criteria proposed by the Japan ABPM Research Program. Talaromyces boninensis was isolated from bronchial lavage fluid and identified by molecular analysis, supporting its association with the ABPM diagnosis. The abstract does not report the patient’s symptoms, treatment, or clinical outcome.

What made this case unusual

The case associated ABPM with T. boninensis, a non-Aspergillus fungus; the authors describe it as the first such case to their knowledge.

Diagnostic / clinical pearl

In suspected ABPM, consider fungi beyond Aspergillus; bronchial lavage isolation with molecular identification can help establish the implicated organism.
