[The role of imperfect fungi in etiopathogenesis of allergic rhinitis].

In this paper the role of imperfect fungi in etiopathogenesis of perennial rhinitis was examined. In a group of 26 patients the concentration of total IgE and IgE specific of Candida albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus, Alternaria alternata, Mucor racemosus and Cladosporum herbarum was signified. Oversensibility to imperfect fungi was confirmed in 30.8% of patients: to Candida albicans in 3.8%, to Aspergillus fumigatus in 11.5%, to Alternaria alternata in 3.8%, to Mucor racemosus in 7.6% and to Cladosporum herbarum in 3.8%.
