BACKGROUND: Although thought to have common immunopathological processes, concomitant occurrence of @entity5929 ( @entity5929 ) and @entity56 ( @entity56 ) appears to be rarely reported as to date only five detailed case reports are available. OBJECTIVE: To present a review of seven cases of concomitant @entity5929 and @entity56 , three of whom were earlier reported for their unusual presentations. METHODS: @entity1 with @entity5929 with nasal symptoms were evaluated radiologically. Consent was taken for antral wash and/or Caldwell-Luc operation in those with radiological evidence of @entity1244 and the material was sent for histopathological and mycological studies. RESULTS: Of the 95 @entity1 with @entity5929 , 22 had radiological evidence of @entity1244 . Nine consented to surgery, seven of whom were diagnosed as concomitant @entity56 . Nasal symptoms preceded chest symptoms in two @entity1 , vice versa in one and occurred simultaneously in four. Familial occurrence of @entity5929 , @entity11294 and collapse with effusion along with an operated aspergilloma were seen in one @entity1 each. @entity358 and central @entity4595 were seen in all @entity1 . Computed tomography of the paranasal sinuses, carried out in six @entity1 , revealed mucosal thickening with @entity75 , without any bony @entity2681 or destruction. All @entity1 had positive skin tests, positive precipitin study and raised total and specific IgE. Allergic mucin was seen in all @entity1 , fungal hyphae in five, and culture grew Aspergillus spp. in four. All @entity1 responded favourably to oral @entity617 . CONCLUSION: Concomitant occurrence of @entity5929 and @entity56 seems to be infrequently recognized. Since @entity565 and @entity1244 are often seen by two different specialities, the occurrence of @entity56 in @entity5929 and @entity5929 in @entity56 may easily be overlooked.
