BACKGROUND: Several diagnostic criteria have been proposed to differentiate allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis (ABPM) from asthma, but there have been no studies to establish diagnostic criteria to classify ABPM differently from other eosinophilic lung diseases.
METHODS: We retrospectively investigated both patients with ABPM (n=42) diagnosed by clinical (Rosenberg-Patterson criteria modified to apply to fungi other than Aspergillus spp., with consideration of computed tomography and bronchoscopy findings) or pathological criteria and those with other eosinophilic lung diseases (n=118) to establish elaborate diagnostic criteria for ABPM.
RESULTS: Etiologies of ABPM included fungi other than Aspergillus spp. or unidentified pathogens in 16 patients. Fourteen patients (33.3%) did not have asthma. When the diagnostic cutoff line was set to satisfy six or more primary plus secondary modified Rosenberg-Patterson criteria, ABPM could be diagnosed with good sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative predictive values (97.6%, 98.3%, 95.3%, and 99.1%, respectively). When the diagnostic criteria were combined with pathological criteria, the values further improved to 100%, 98.3%, 95.5%, and 100%, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that these novel criteria offer good sensitivity, specificity, and positive/negative predictive values for the diagnosis and classification of ABPM.
