title: [Paucisymptomatic presentation of an allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis].
abstract: Clinical atypical presentations of rare lung disease can cause a diagnostic issue. In this case report, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis is not like in the traditional form of severe asthma but is revealed by a persistent cough. CT scan and biological examinations should be prescribed when there is doubt in confirming the diagnosis. Diagnostic and therapeutic management should be done early in this disease to avoid complications such as bronchiectasis.
