Allergic Broncho-Pulmonary Aspergillosis (ABPA) in cystic fibrosis: Mechanisms, diagnosis and therapeutic options
REVUE DES MALADIES RESPIRATOIRES(2021)
摘要
Introduction. - Fungal aspergillosis colonization and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis ( ABPA) can have a strong impact on the prognosis in cystic fibrosis (CF). We conducted round table discussions involving French experts from pediatric and adult centers caring for patients with CF, microbiologists, radiologists and pharmacists. The aim was to explore the current state of knowledge on: the pathophysiological mechanisms of Aspergillus and other micromycetes infections in CF (such as Scedosporium sp.), and on the clinico-biological diagnosis of ABPA. In perspective, the experts explored the role of imaging in the diagnosis of APBA, specifically CT and MRI; as well as the role of bronchoscopy in the management. We also reviewed the therapeutic management, including different corticosteroid regimens, antifungals and anti-IgE antibodies. Conclusion. - The diagnosis of ABPA in CF should be based on more standardized biological assays and imaging to optimize treatment and follow-up. (C) 2021 SPLF. Published by Elsevier Masson SAS.
