The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Pigeon fancier's lung, a form of extrinsic allergic alveolitis (EAA), is rare in childhood but can cause rapidly progressive and severe lung disease. We present a case of EAA in a young girl which resulted from exposure to pigeons in her home environment and discuss the particular features of the disease when it occurs in childhood. © 2006 Elsevier Ltd.
