Abstract
We report a case of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in a 26-year-old women. Hypoxemia was refractory despite conventional treatment of ARDS, but the evolution was satisfactory after corticosteroid therapy. Boiological data, results on bronchoalveolar lavage and the clinical evolution led us to the diagnosis of acute eosinophilic pneumonia. This case demonstrates that acute eosinophilic pneumonia should be included in rigorous etiological research before any ARDS, in order to start the appropriate treatment as soon as possible.
