摘　　要：The diagnosis of allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis(ABPM)is usually made on clinical,serologic,and roentgenographic findings.However,the indicators in such diagnostic criteria still lack specificity,which results in a high rate of misdiagnosis.A 47-year-old woman was diagnosed with“tuberculosis”or“pneumonia”for 10years and after thoracoscopic right upper lung resection the following chest CT showed right lung atelectasis.Brown sputum was seen in the right bronchus via bronchoscopy.Reviewing the surgical pathology specimen,the bronchi were found to be generally cystic dilated,and a large amount of mucus was retained and formed a mucus plug.The final diagnosis of the case was ABPM.The current diagnostic criteria of ABPM do not emphasize the role of bronchoscopy and pathological examination,but bronchoscopy and pathological examination still have important value for some atypical cases with suspected ABPM.
