Pulmonary eosinophilia in identical twins N BARNES, BJ GRAY, R HEATON, JF COSTELLO
From the Chest Unit, King's College Hospital Medical School, London Familial cryptogenic pulmonary eosinophilia has not previously been described. We report cryptogenic pulmonary eosinophilia occurring at different times in identical twins.
Case reports Case 1 A 25-year-old nurse presented in September 1977 with a four-week history of sustained pyrexia, rigors, anorexia, weight loss, non-productive cough, and pleuritic chest pain. Since the age of 16 she had noticed transient mild wheeziness, associated with hay fever during the summer months. Wheezing had become episodic and more severe during her present illness, and she was taking salbutamol 400 ,ug by metered-dose inhaler as required (on average about twice daily) to control her wheeziness. She had no history of eczema or drug reactions, and there was no history of ingestion of any drugs likely to be associated with pulmonary eosinophilia. She had never travelled outside Europe. Examination showed a temperature of 37-5°C and tachycardia of 96 beats/min. There was a pleural rub heard widely over the right lower chest anteriorly and in the right axilla. Widespread bilateral inspiratory crackles were also audible. Her chest radiograph (fig 1) showed bilateral but predominantly right-sided confluent infiltrates with a mainly peripheral distribution. The white blood cell count (WBC) was 16 x 109/l, with an eosinophil count of 4-5 x 109/l and an erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) of 100 mm in the first hour. Microscopic examination of the sputum showed numerous eosinophils, but no hyphae were seen. Skin prick tests showed weak reactions (
