    Abstract Endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is a commonly performed outpatient procedure used for the diagnosis, staging of lung cancer, and the evaluation of thoracic lymphadenopathy of unknown origin. With the advent of this minimally invasive technology, mediastinoscopy, once the gold standard, has fallen out of favour. Pneumomediastinum is a rare complication of EBUS-TBNA and can often be managed conservatively. We present a case of a 52-year-old female who developed pneumomediastinum following EBUS-TBNA and improved with expectant management in the emergency department. We discuss the proposed pathophysiology of this rare occurrence that usually follows a benign course. Severe complications, such as mediastinitis and tracheal tear, need to be excluded promptly.

    Abstract Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is an uncommon cause of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). Patients with IPH usually present with hemoptysis, and the diagnosis is often delayed by years. Patients often present with intermittent episodes of hemoptysis interspersed between periods of relative normalcy. However, massive hemorrhage resulting in acute respiratory failure and non-remitting hemoptysis have also been described. The classic triad includes hemoptysis, radiologic lung infiltrate, and iron deficiency anemia. Several hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of IPH have been proposed. These risk factors include an autoimmune, allergic or genetic predisposition, and possible environmental exposure. Since IPH appears to be responsive to corticosteroids, the autoimmune hypothesis is considered to play a crucial role. A diagnosis of IPH requires exclusion of other etiologies of DAH, including infection, medications, toxic inhalation, vasculitis, and anti-glomerular basement membrane disease, among others. Histologically, IPH is characterized by the presence of hemosiderin-laden macrophages in the alveolar space without any evidence of vasculitis or immunocomplex deposition. Corticosteroid therapy represents the primary modality of treatment. Other immunosuppressive medications have also been used with varying success, especially in the setting of steroid-refractory disease. The prognosis of IPH in adults is somewhat better compared to the pediatric population. The severity of the initial presentation does not predict future outcomes. Which risk factors and patient characteristics are associated with a poor outcome are also unknown. More research is necessary to elucidate the pathophysiology and appropriate treatment.

  9. Article: Liposteroid Therapy for Idiopathic Pulmonary Hemosiderosis: A Scoping Review of the Literature.

    Abstract Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is a rare cause of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). Glucocorticosteroids (CS) represent the first line therapy for IPH. Although most patients respond to CS, steroid refractoriness is seen in an appreciable minority of patients. This paper reviews and evaluates the efficacy and safety profile of liposomal dexamethasone 21-palmitate (liposteroid) for the treatment of IPH. Medline, Embase and Web of Science biomedical databases were searched between 1980 and 2020 to identify papers describing patients with IPH, who were treated with liposteroid. A total of five articles were identified. Four in the form of case reports and one as a case series. A total of 12 pediatric patients (5 boys, 7 girls) were identified, with a median age of 2.3 years (range 0.5-8.6). Liposteroid therapy in intravenous doses ranging 0.06-0.1 mg/kg body weight appeared to be effective for both remission induction therapy, and maintenance therapy. There was no mortality among patients treated with liposteroid, either in the acute phase or during follow-up. The majority of patients for whom long-term follow-up data were available, were cured or in disease remission. No acute adverse events were reported, and long-term side effects were minimal and tolerable. Liposteroid represents a potential alternative or supplement to conventional CS therapy, as it appears to be more efficacious and associated with fewer side effects. Larger prospective, controlled trials are necessary to be able to define more precisely the therapeutic role of liposteroid in IPH.

    Abstract A middle-aged man in his 50s, active smoker, presented to the pulmonary office for lung cancer evaluation. On a low-dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening, he was found to have an 8 mm endobronchial lesion in the right main stem bronchus. A PET-CT revealed no endobronchial lesion, but incidentally, fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) avidity was present in the right hilar (SUV 13.2) and paratracheal lymph nodes (LNs). He underwent bronchoscopy and EBUS-TBNA of station 7 and 10 R LNs. The fine needle aspiration (FNA) revealed necrotizing epithelioid granuloma. The acid-fast bacilli (AFB) and Grocott methenamine silver (GMS) stains were negative. He had suffered from pneumonic tularemia 13 months ago and immunohistochemical staining for Francisella tularensis on FNA samples at Center for Disease Control and Prevention was negative. The intense positron emission tomography (PET) avidity was attributed to prior tularemic intrathoracic lymphadenitis without active tularemia, a rare occurrence. To the best of our knowledge, PET-positive intrathoracic lymph node beyond one year without evidence of active tularemia has not been previously reported.
