dc.description.abstractAllergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) is a slowly progressive disease caused by hypersensitivity to Aspergillus fumigatus. This condition is most commonly seen in patients with asthma and cystic fibrosis. ABPA mimics a wide range of diseases, thereby further accentuating the difficulties faced by medical practitioners in diagnosing this condition. Even today, this condition remains under diagnosed in many countries with reports of mean diagnostic latency of ten years between the occurrence of symptoms and the diagnosis. We present a case report and review of literature with the aim of highlighting the complicated nature of this enigmatic illness.en_US
