Aggarwal, Purnima Case Report Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA), as a complication of asthma, is rare in children. The persistent and poorly-controlled asthma leading to cor pulmonale is not uncommon in adults but rarely described in the pediatric age group.

To the best of our knowledge, such association has never been reported in the pediatric age group.
