Case report: A case of acute mastitis associated with reactive cutaneous capillary endothelial proliferation after camrelizumab treatment: A new immune-related adverse event.

Lung cancer is a malignant tumor with the highest morbidity and mortality rate worldwide, and it seriously endangers human health. In recent years, immunotherapy has been widely used in lung cancer and has achieved great benefits, especially the application of promoting antitumor immune defense. However, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) caused by immune checkpoint inhibitors have received increasing attention, which largely limits their use. We report the first case of new acute mastitis caused by anti-PD1 inhibitors due to lung adenocarcinoma. A 65-year-old female patient came to our hospital for treatment with cough and shortness of breath for one month. Chest CT showed that the malignant tumor in the lower lobe of the right lung with pleural effusion had metastasized to many places, and then pleural effusion was taken for pathological examination. Pathological examination indicated that the pleural fluid originated from lung adenocarcinoma. Subsequently, the patient received platinum-containing dual-agent chemotherapy (carboplatin and pemetrexed disodium) combined with immunotherapy (camrelizumab). During treatment, the patient developed known adverse events and unreported acute mastitis. After stopping camrelizumab, the patient's mastitis gradually improved. Our case shows that acute mastitis might be a new adverse event after the use of camrelizumab. Since this new adverse event has not been reported, we hope that oncology medical workers can obtain insight from our case and use it as a reference for the identification and management of irAEs.

Case Report: Upper limb dysfunction may be caused by chest wall mass excision: An enlightenment from a special case.

Of all the thoracic surgical procedures, chest wall surgery is probably the lowest-risk type. In fact, it is not so. Clinical work also often has the trap of chest wall surgery. An operation to remove a mass in the axilla may result in upper limb disability on the affected side. Here, we report the case of a 47-year-old female patient with a left chest wall adjacent axillary mass, which was considered an abnormal structural lymph node on color ultrasound examination and chest CT. Otherwise, she felt no discomfort. The left upper limb moved freely without being affected by the mass. A routine resection of the tumor was performed after the preoperative examination was completed. After the operation, the incision recovered well. However, the day after the surgery, she developed numbness and pain in her left little finger and ring finger, pain that often kept her from sleeping. The mass was confirmed to be a schwannoma with cystic degeneration by pathology slicing after the operation. By this time, doctors were alerted to the fact that the removal of the chest wall mass had nearly disabled the left upper limb of the patient, which was a great warning to the thoracic surgeon. In this case report, we hope that all surgeons will be cautious and careful and will not trust the imaging diagnosis too much. It is also hoped that the patient understands that some procedures may lead to unexpected complications.
