Zusammenfassung

Die allergisch-bronchopulmonale Aspergillose (ABPA) bei Patienten mit zystischer Fibrose (CF) frühzeitig zu diagnostizieren bereitet häufig Schwierigkeiten, da die Klinik bei einem milden Verlauf einer ABPA oder einer schweren Form einer CF der jeweils anderen Erkrankung zugeschrieben werden kann. Dies kann die Erklärung für „klinisch stumme“ Fälle mit bereits deutlichen radiologischen und serologischen Veränderungen sein. Die Diagnose wird häufig erst nach Jahren und in einem späteren Stadium der Erkrankung gestellt. Ein gezieltes Screening, eine darauf aufbauende Diagnostik und eine rasch einsetzende Therapie sind notwendig.

In der Praxis Bewährtes und Studienergebnisse aus den letzten Jahren, die zu Verbesserungen der Diagnostik und Therapie führten, haben wir für den klinisch tätigen CF-Betreuer in einem Leitpapier zusammengefasst.

Abstract

Early diagnosis of allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis (CF) is difficult because mild ABPA and severe forms of CF share common clinical features difficult to be clearly assigned to one of the diseases. This could explain “silent” cases of ABPA already showing distinct radiological and immunological changes not sufficient for a clear cut diagnosis of the disease. Therefore, the diagnosis of ABPA is often made in late stages compromising an efficient patient’s management. However, for disease management a reliable diagnostic screening followed by a rapid therapy would be essential. Classical diagnostic criteria established in clinical practice and new studies performed during the last years which contributed to an improved diagnosis and therapy of ABPA in CF are summarized here in a position paper aimed to help the clinicians treating CF patients in diagnosing ABPA.
