It is considered to be the result of allergic reaction to moldy sugar cane inhalation(1) . Case Report All of the patients worked at a paper produc- tion factory in Karnchanaburi province and were
HP : Pathogenesis precipitating Ab against specific Ag immune - complex mediated process precipitating Ab against specific Ag 50% of asymptomatic persons exposed also have Ab
HP: Pathogenesis cell - mediated immunity more important response increase PMN in alveoli & small airways influx of mononuclear cells formation of granulomas cytokine from T- lymphocytes & macrophages
HP : Histologic findings diffuse interstitial infiltrate : lymphocytes, macrophages, mast cells, plasma cells scattered noncaseating granulomas cellular inflammation of bronchioles, + bronchiolar obstruction absent generalized vasculitis, necrotizing granulomata ~ duration or stage of disease, adequacy of biopsy sample
HP : Diagnostic criteria Major criteria 1. Symptoms c/w HP , appear or worsens within hours after Ag exposure 2. Confirmation of exposure to the offending agent by - Hx -investigation of the environment -serum precipitin test -BAL Ab
HP : Diagnostic criteria 3. Compatible CXR or HRCT 4. Lymphocytosis in BAL 5. Compatible histologic changes 6. Positive “natural challenge” or by controlled inhalational challenge
HP : Diagnostic criteria Minor criteria 1. Basilar crackles 2. Decreased diffusion capacity 3. Arterial hypoxemia, at rest or with exercise
HP : Diagnostic criteria Four major criteria Two minor criteria Other diseases have been excluded Adapted from Schuyler + Cormier Chest 1997; 111: 534-6.
HP : Diagnosis often unrecognized & misdiagnosed respiratory symptoms with Hx. of environmental occupational exposure respiratory symptoms with episodic radiographic infiltrates “Recurrent pneumonia”
HP : Radiographic findings vary to the stage of disease acute HP bilateral micronodular (1-4 mm.) infiltrates patchy ground-glass opacities decreased attenuation (air trapping from bronchiolitis) and mosaic pattern (expiratory view)
HP : Radiographic findings Subacute HP fine linear shadows, small nodules = reticulonodular appearance Chronic HP volume loss reticulonodular infiltrates honeycombing predominantly upper & mid lung zones
HP : Pulmonary function tests restrictive changes (superimposed obstruction in chronic HP) decreased diffusing capacity ABG: increased alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient frank hypoxemia (severe cases) oxygen desat. with exercise (clue in suspected case)
HP : BAL fluid intense lymphocytosis predominantly CD 8+ T-suppressor cells ~ timing of the last antigen exposure, stage of disease
HP: key features Acute Subacute Chronic Time frame 4-48 hr weeks to 4 M. 4 M. to years Clinical features fever, chills, cough hypoxemia, aches dyspnea , cough, episodic flares dyspnea, cough, fatigue, weight loss HRCT ground glass infiltrates micronodules, air trapping fibrosis, honey combing, emphysema Immunopathology alveolitis, immune complex granulomas, bronchiolitis lymphocytic infiltration, fibrosis,air space destruction Prognosis good
HP : Differential diagnosis Acute stage pneumonia acute tracheobronchitis organic dust toxic syndrome BOOP
HP : Differential diagnosis Subacute stage recurrent pneumonia granulomatous lung diseases pneumoconiosis Wegener’s granulomatosis
HP : Differential diagnosis Chronic stage IPF bronchiectasis COPD with pulmonary fibrosis MAC
HP: Management early diagnosis avoidance of further exposure protective devices :- personal respirators relocation to a new job reducing microorganism contamination in the environment altering handling & storage wetting compost using antibiotics to decrease fungal growth preventive maintenance on all A/C equipment

Subacute HP, a 60-year-old dairy farmer had a 8-year history of intermittent dyspnea. CXR shows bilateral reticulonodular interstitial infiltration.
Chronic pigeon breeder’s disease Chronic pigeon breeder’s disease. This patient has extensive pulmonary fibrosis & cor pulmonale.
Chronic HP, Pigeon breeder’s disease Chronic HP, Pigeon breeder’s disease. Bilateral reticulonodular densities are present.
Acute HP, ground glass opacification
HRCT of a patient with Chronic HP demonstrating centrilobular nodules not associated with bronchovascular bundles.
Chronic HP, centrilobular nodules.
Chronic HP, honeycombing in right upper lung & traction bronchiectasis
Acute HP, mononuclear infiltration & noncaseating granulomas.
Chronic HP, mostly lymphocytic cellular infiltrate with epithelioid cells & numerous and clearly defined granuloma. (Wright-Giemsa)
Giant cells are characteristic feature of HP.
Chronic HP shows interstitial inflammation associated with fibrosis.
