Overview
Eosinophilic lung diseases may be classified according to the cause into; pneumonias of unknown cause such as idiopathic chronic eosinophilic pneumonia and idiopathic acute eosinophilic pneumonia, pneumonias of known cause such as allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis and eosinophilic pneumonias of parasitic origin, and eosinophilic airways diseases such as hypereosinophilic asthma and idiopathic hypereosinophilic constrictive bronchiolitis.
Classification
The eosinophilic lung diseases can be classified according to the cause into:[1][2][3]
Eosinophilic pneumonias of unknown cause
- Solitary idiopathic eosinophilic pneumonia
- Idiopathic chronic eosinophilic pneumonia
- Idiopathic acute eosinophilic pneumonia
- Eosinophilic pneumonia in systemic syndrome
- Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis
- Idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome
Eosinophilic pneumonias of known cause
- Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis and related syndrome
- Eosinophilic pneumonias of parasitic origin
- Eosinophilic pneumonias of other infectious cause
- Drug-induced eosinophilic pneumonia
Eosinophilic airways diseases
- Eosinophilic asthma
- Hypereosinophilic asthma
- Idiopathic hypereosinophilic constrictive bronchiolitis
