    Abstract Background: A well-recognized therapy to improve the symptoms of patients with malignant pleural effusion (MPE), indwelling pleural catheters (IPCs) can also achieve spontaneous pleurodesis. Chemical pleurodesis is associated with a significant pro-coagulation and fibrinolytic environment. Hence, anticoagulation could theoretically interfere with this process.
    Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate if anticoagulation can interfere with successful spontaneous pleurodesis in patients treated with IPC.
    Methods: This was a cohort study of all patients with MPE treated with IPC. The primary objective was to determine if anticoagulant use after IPC placement decreased the rate of spontaneous pleurodesis. The secondary objective was to identify other factors associated with spontaneous pleurodesis. We used a Fine-Gray subdistribution hazard model and a direct acyclic graph to identify variables associated with time to spontaneous pleurodesis.
    Results: Of the included 410 patients, 210 patients (51.2%) achieved pleurodesis and had their IPC removed. We found no association between anticoagulation and likelihood of pleurodesis. Multivariate analyses revealed that prior chemotherapy, ECOG score of 2-4 were associated with unsuccessful pleurodesis, while chemotherapy or radiotherapy after IPC placement remained associated with increased likelihood of spontaneous pleurodesis.
    Conclusions: We failed to demonstrate an association between anticoagulation and pleurodesis. We found that better performance status and chemotherapy or radiotherapy after IPC placement can increase the rate of pleurodesis and catheter removal.

    Abstract Common findings of COVID-19 pneumonia on chest CT images include ground-glass opacities and organizing pneumonia. Here, we present a patient with a history of lung cancer who came to our center for re-staging CT studies, which showed a solitary peripheral lung mass suggestive of lung cancer. While being evaluated for the mass, the patient developed respiratory failure due to COVID-19 pneumonia. After treatment for COVID-19 and recovery, CT showed complete resolution of the solitary peripheral lung mass. This case highlights that COVID-19 can, on occasion, present with CT findings that mimic those of lung cancer.

    Abstract A 63-year-old male with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) developed a tracheomediastinal fistula after endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration while on treatment with bevacizumab. This vascular endothelial growth factor-specific angiogenesis inhibitor is a first-line treatment for unresectable or metastatic NSCLC and has been reported to cause fatal non-gastrointestinal fistulas. Respiratory tract fistulas are a known rare complication after bevacizumab therapy characterized by a high mortality rate.
