Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia
-
Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (CEP) is a disorder of unknown etiology characterized by an abnormal, chronic accumulation of eosinophils in the lung.
(See also Overview of Eosinophilic Pulmonary Diseases.)
Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia is not truly chronic; rather it is an acute or subacute illness that recurs (thus, a better name might be recurrent eosinophilic pneumonia). The prevalence and incidence of chronic eosinophilic pneumonia are unknown. Etiology is suspected to be an allergic diathesis. Most patients are nonsmokers.
