Is there a link between chronic allergic fungal rhinosinusitis and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency? A case report

Diagnosis of AAT deficiency starts with clinical suspicion and it is confirmed through serum levels and phenotyping/genotyping. AAT deficiency represents a potential contributing factor to chronic allergic fungal rhinosinusitis. We report a case of chronic fungal allergic rhinosinusitis associated with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficit.

Abstract

Diagnosis of AAT deficiency starts with clinical suspicion and it is confirmed through serum levels and phenotyping/genotyping. AAT deficiency represents a potential contributing factor to chronic allergic fungal rhinosinusitis.
