Kapalı ekim, işçilerde ekstrensek allerjik alveolitis olarak bilinen hipersensitivite pnömonisi gibi alerjik semptomlara yol açar. Yirmi üç yaşındaki erkek hastanın yakınmaları mantar üretim işine başladıktan sonra ortaya çıkmış. Hasta, üşüme, titreme, ateş, eklem ağrıları, cilt döküntüleri şikâyetiyle kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastanın anamnez, fizik muayene ve radyolojik incelenmesinde hipersensitivite pnömonisi düşünülerek medikal tedavi başlandı. Hastanın yakınmaları birkaç gün sonra geriledi.
