Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia.
Abstract
Various types of pulmonary eosinophilia have been known for several years. Chronic eosinophilic pneumonia (original word for Christoforidis and Molnar 1960) is a rare entity whose diagnosis is possible through clinical, laboratory and radiological data.

Seriousness can be very high, demanding an urgent diagnosis and treatment.
