Managing Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension With Cardiopulmonary Comorbidities
Chest. 2024 Mar;165(3):682-691. doi: 10.1016/j.chest.2023.08.023.ABSTRACTPulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and pulmonary hypertension associated with left-sided heart and lung diseases are most commonly easily discriminated and treated accordingly. With the changing epidemiology of PAH, however, a growing proportion of patients at the time of diagnosis present with comorbidities of varying severity. In addition to classical PAH, two distinct phenotypes have emerged: a heart failure with preserved ejection fraction-like phenotype and a lung phenotype. Importantly, the evidence supporting the currently proposed treatment...

A 49-Year-Old Man With Fever and Dyspnea After Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy
Chest. 2024 Mar;165(3):e65-e69. doi: 10.1016/j.chest.2023.08.018.ABSTRACTA 49-year-old man, a farmer, had been experiencing coughing, phlegm, and difficulty breathing for 2 months. He underwent a CT scan at a local hospital that showed a mediastinal mass. Bronchoscopy showed no obstruction in the tracheal lumen, and an endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial fine needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) biopsy was performed on the mediastinal mass. The cytologic smear of the mediastinal mass showed a few atypical epithelial cells; the possibility of a tumor could not be ruled out. The patient visited our thoracic surgery outpa...

She experienced cyanosis on exertion but denied fever, hemoptysis, hematuria, or seizures. Her perinatal and family histories were unremarkable, and she had no history of exposure to TB. A chest radiogram from a local clinic showed diffuse pulmonary lesions. Tuberculin skin test, interferon-γ release assay, and HIV antibody test results were all negative. Immunoglobulin levels and lymphocyte subsets were normal. The patient did not respond to IV azi...
