Abstract

Five cases of hypersensitivity pneumonitis from doves and/or pidgeons in children presented within a 8 month period. Patients were 11 to 15 years of age; there were 2 females and 3 males. The diagnosis in all patients was confirmed by the presence of precipitating antibody to dove or pigeon serum and/or droppings. Clinical improvement was noted in all patients after exposure to the birds ceased.
