Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) is a distinct clinic-radiological syndrome characterized by the coexistence of upper-lobe emphysema and lower-lobe fibrosis and is increasingly recognized in patients with connective tissue diseases, including RA. We describe the case of a 50-year-old nonsmoking woman who presented with a 3-year history of progressive exertional dyspnea and chronic dry cough, preceding the onset of inflammatory polyarthritis by nearly 2 years. She later developed symmetrical involvement of small and large joints with prolonged morning stiffness, along with constitutional symptoms including low-grade fever and weight loss. Physical examination revealed grade IV digital clubbing and bibasilar inspiratory crackles. Laboratory evaluation showed elevated inflammatory markers with negative rheumatoid factor and anticyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies, consistent with seronegative RA. High-resolution computed tomography of the thorax showed upper lobe emphysema and lower lobe honeycombing, confirming the diagnosis of CPFE. Pulmonary function testing showed relatively preserved airflow with mildly reduced diffusion capacity, along with severe exercise-induced desaturation. Echocardiography revealed mild pulmonary hypertension. This case highlights an uncommon presentation of rheumatoid arthritis-associated combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (RA-CPFE), where pulmonary manifestations preceded articular disease, emphasizing the need for a high index of suspicion. Early recognition through high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) and comprehensive pulmonary evaluation is crucial, as RA-CPFE is associated with significant morbidity, pulmonary hypertension, and poor prognosis. Multidisciplinary management incorporating immunosuppressive therapy, consideration of antifibrotics in progressive disease, and supportive care remains essential.

Among uncommon causes of recurrent hemorrhagic effusion is catamenial hemothorax, which is a part of thoracic endometriosis syndrome (TES). Endometriosis is the extrauterine growth of endometrial glands and stroma. It is relatively common among women of reproductive age-group, with reported incidence of around 11%. Although rare, the thorax is the most common extraabdominal site for endometriosis. Here we present a rare case of recurrent hemorrhagic pleural effusion due to thoracic endometriosis in a young female with infertility. A 33-year-old female housewife presented with dyspnea on exertion modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) grade 2 and dry cough occasionally for 6 months. She had a history of tubercular cervical lymphadenopathy for which she was on treatment. Therapeutic thoracocentesis was performed thrice in 4 months. Routine microscopy showed predominantly lymphocytes, mesothelial cells, and numerous foamy histiocytes, some pigment laden. There were no malignant cells or acid-fast bacilli (AFB) detected in the fluid. Pleural fluid amylase and lipase were normal. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) thorax showed moderate right-sided pleural effusion without any evident parenchymal lesions, pleural lesions, or mediastinal lymphadenopathy. Ultrasonography (USG) abdomen and pelvis showed mild ascites which was nontappable. As we had not reached a definitive diagnosis, medical thoracoscopy was performed. It showed moderate hemorrhagic pleural fluid in the pleural cavity and a small raised erythematous glandular tissue on the parietal pleural surface from which biopsy was taken. Histopathology showed an island of endometrial stroma with a single gland. Immunohistochemistry was performed on this section, which was PAX8 and CD10 positive, confirming the diagnosis of thoracic endometriosis. Pleurodesis with talc slurry was done to prevent further refilling of the effusion. Gynecology opinion was sought, and patient was started on monthly subcutaneous injections of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogue for 3 months. Chest X-ray after 3 months showed no refilling of pleural effusion. Catamenial hemothorax is the second commonest manifestation of TES, occurring in approximately 14% of cases. It affects the right side in about 80% of the cases. Diagnosis is based on high degree of suspicion and is often delayed. Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) remains the gold standard for diagnosis and management of TES. Medical thoracoscopy is a viable alternative in resource-poor settings or when diagnosis is not confirmed. On histology, diagnosis is confirmed by the presence of endometriotic glands or stroma, which may also show stromal arterioles, erythrocytes, and pigmented histiocytes.

It is due to demyelination of the pons without any inflammation. Other causes include chronic malnutrition, alcoholism, and underlying medical illnesses such as post-liver transplant.

On admission, the patient was drowsy, obeying oral commands, mildly dyspneic, dehydrated, weakness of all four limbs.

On evaluation, arterial blood gas (ABG) showed hyperchloremic normal anion gap metabolic acidosis. Serum potassium level was very low, and serum sodium level was significantly high.
