    Description: Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) (also known as extrinsic allergic alveolitis) represents a group of pulmonary disorders mediated by inflammatory reaction to inhalation of an allergen. These may be organic or inorganic particles (microbes, animal or plant proteins, and certain chemicals) that form haptens by sensitised individuals. More than 200 different antigens have been associated with the development of HP, including plant products, animal products, aerosolized micro-organisms, and organic chemicals. Smoking is protective against HP. Depending on the type of precipitant, numerous other more precipitant specific terms have been used such as: • bird fancier's lung: pigeon fancier's lung •farmer's lung •cheese worker’s lung •mushroom worker’s lung •malt worker’s lung •maple bark disease •hot tub lung •organic chemicals such as isocyanates found in paint hardeners •from immunosuppresants used in organ transplantation: e.g. sirolimus/everolimus The diagnosis relies on a constellation of findings: exposure to an offending antigen, characteristic signs and symptoms, abnormal chest findings on physical examination, and abnormalities on pulmonary function tests and radiographic evaluation.
