    Includes
    • allergic alveolitis and pneumonitis due to inhaled organic dust and particles of fungal, actinomycetic or other origin
    Type 1 Excludes
    • pneumonitis due to inhalation of chemicals, gases, fumes or vapors (J68.0)
    Hypersensitivity pneumonitis due to organic dust
Approximate Synonyms
  • Extrinsic allergic alveolitis
  • Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
Clinical Information
  • A common interstitial lung disease caused by hypersensitivity reactions of pulmonary alveoli after inhalation of and sensitization to environmental antigens of microbial, animal, or chemical sources. The disease is characterized by lymphocytic alveolitis and granulomatous pneumonitis.
  • Conditions in which inhalation of organic dusts results in hypersensitivity reactions at the alveolar level, associated with the production of precipitins.
