TI  - Clinical Manifestations of Allergic Bronchopulmonary Aspergillosis without Major 
      Features of Asthma Diagnosed by the New Criteria in Japan.

AB  - Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a severe form of asthma in 
      which structural airway destruction occurs due to a hypersensitivity reaction to 
      fungi. A 25-year-old man without any major features of asthma had lung 
      infiltration with dilatation of the central bronchus, high-attenuation mucus with 
      histological eosinophilic invasion, fungi detected on cultures, and positive 
      Aspergillus-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) and precipitating antibody of 
      Aspergillus, with a significant elevation of blood eosinophils and slightly 
      increased total IgE. He recovered rapidly with systemic corticosteroid therapy 
      without recurrence over 1-year follow-up and an increased forced expiratory 
      volume in one second, which supported the possibility of ABPA without any major 
      features of asthma.
