Overview
- At the turn of the 20th century, it was recognized that some patients died with bilateral lung disease that was unusual these days.
- In 1944, Hamman described a group of four otherwise healthy patients who developed progressive lung disease, and died of respiratory failure within 1 to 3 months of presentation. This disorder became known as Hamman-Rich syndrome.
- In 1989, Acute eosinophilic pneumonia was first described by Badesch and colleagues and later individualized by Allen and colleagues.[1]
- In 1969, Carrington was the first to describe chronic eosinophilic pneumonia and known as Carrington syndrome.
