Two children developed hypersensitivity pneumonitis after extensive exposure to an unventilated basement shower. Commercial precipitin panels were negative. After home inspection, individual mold species were isolated from the household and extracted. Precipitating antibodies to Epicoccum nigrum were found in both children. Resolution of the hypersensitivity pneumonitis occurred with avoidance and glucocorticosteroid therapy. E nigrum is a newly identified etiologic agent for hypersensitivity pneumonitis found in a mold-contaminated home.
两名儿童在长时间接触未通风的地下室淋浴设施后患上了过敏性肺炎。商业沉淀素检测呈阴性。经过家庭检查，从家中分离并提取了各种霉菌。在两名儿童体内均发现了针对黑附球菌的沉淀抗体。通过避免接触和糖皮质激素治疗，过敏性肺炎得到了缓解。黑附球菌是在一个受霉菌污染的家中发现的一种新确认的过敏性肺炎病原体。
