Résumé

Acute eosinophilic pneumonia (AEP) is a disease characterized by an acute febrile onset, eosinophilia in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and a dramatic response to corticosteroids. Although many studies have reported a close relationship between direct cigarette smoking and AEP, few studies have identified an association between passive smoking and AEP. Here, we report a case of AEP in a 19-year-old female with cough, fever, and dyspnea after 4 weeks of intense exposure to secondhand smoke for 6 to 8 hours a day in an enclosed area.

Résumé

Lymphadenopathy in the thoracic cavity is frequently caused by inflammatory diseases. In very rare cases, the node-bronchial fistula has been reported to be the cause of complications of pulmonary tuberculosis. A male patient with necrotizing pneumonia and mediastinal lymph node enlargements identified by chest computed tomography was also found to have a node-bronchial fistula caused by lung cancer. The patient was treated for tuberculosis with pneumonia for one week before a definitive diagnosis was made. A further investigation revealed him to have non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC, adenocarcinoma) and multiple mediastinal lymphadenopathies accompanied with the node-bronchial fistula. We report this specific case that had been previously treated for tuberculosis but was later revealed to be NSCLC accompanied with a node-bronchial fistula.

Résumé

Primary neoplasm of the heart is rare. Benign tumors, the majority of which are myxomas, comprise up to 50% of cardiac neoplasms. Although cardiac myxoma is a source of emboli to the central nervous system and elsewhere in the vascular tree, its clinical signs and symptoms may be nonspecific. These nonspecific systemic symptoms and minor embolic phenomena may be overlooked in patients without a previous history of cardiac problems. Thus, we need to recognize the signs of myxoma and begin treatment immediately. We encountered a case of left atrial myxoma, presenting as pulmonary interstitial edema of unknown cause, in a 50-year-old female patient. Excision of a mass located on the left atrium was scheduled but she developed a cerebral embolism that led to her death.

Résumé

Pulmonary complications of ulcerative colitis are relatively uncommon and may present as a variety of disorders. Ulcerative colitis-related interstitial lung disease is extremely rare. There are a few case reports of nonspecific interstitial pneumonia in ulcerative colitis worldwide but none in Korea. We report a patient with ulcerative colitis related biopsy-proven nonspecific interstitial pneumonia, who responded to prednisolone (1 mg/kg) and mesalazine therapy
