Bird fancier’s lung disease: A single center experience

Abstract

Bird fancier rsquo;s lung disease is an immune mediated lung disease caused by organic antigens of birds It is a rare hypersensitivity pneumonitis in children Here we presented four children diagnosed with Bird fancier rsquo;s lung disease that admitted complaints of recurrent respiratory system To the best of our knowledge the first case is the youngest patient in English language literature Bird fancier rsquo;s lung disease should be considered presenting with symtoms of chronic respiratory disease in children and persistently questioned history of bird feeding Turk Arch Ped 2013; 48: 327 31
