Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) occurs in 1-2% of patients with asthma and in 10% of patients with cystic fibrosis. We introduce the acronym ''ARTEPICS'' in this review article on ABPA to facilitate its diagnosis: A: Asthma; R: Roentgenographic infiltrates. T: Tests for Aspergillus fumigatus (At) positive in the skin; E: Eosinophilia; P: Precipitating antibody to Af; I: IgE in serum elevated; C: Central bronchiectasis; and S: Serum specific IgE-Af and IgG-Af elevated (ARTEPICS).
