Idiopathic eosinophilic pneumonia and pregnancy: report of a case.
A case of chronic eosinophilic pneumonia and pregnancy is reported. In 1989, a 24-year-old woman with chronic eosinophilic pneumonia became pregnant. We decided not to stop steroid therapy. Except for premature preterm rupture of the membrane she had a uneventful pregnancy and a male infant with no distress syndrome.
