Rapidly changing pulmonary infiltrates.
Pulmonary eosinophilia responds very quickly to steroid treatment. Chronic pulmonary eosinophilia is common in middle aged females. We report on a patient who presented with subacute onset of shortness of breath, severe weight loss associated with a rise in the peripheral eosinophil count. She was treated successfully with steroids resulting in complete resolution of the pulmonary infiltrates.
