A misleading diagnosis of hyper-sensitivity pneumonitis in a patient suffering from an aspergillus infection and autosomal chronic granulomatous disease (CGD). Just one example of a diagnostic trap typical for this kind of CGD;Diagnostische falle exogen allergische alveolitis: Typisch bei aspergillusinfektion und septischer granulomatose
