Article Synopsis
- Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an immune reaction in the lungs caused by various antigens, but its clinical features and outcomes in South Korea are not well known.
- This study retrospectively analyzed data from 43 patients with pathologically confirmed HP over 24 years, comparing their clinical characteristics, causes, treatments, and outcomes.
- The findings indicate that patients with fibrotic HP were older and exhibited different symptoms compared to those with nonfibrotic HP, with household mold being the most common trigger, and most patients received corticosteroid treatment.
