Around 25% of CD patients exhibit extraintestinal manifestations, though pulmonary involvement is rare. This study presents a case of CD causing pleural effusion. A 43-year-old man visited the pulmonology clinic with a dry cough for one-month, right-side pleuritic chest pain, and exertional dyspnea. He was treated with antihistamines and antitussive syrup, with incomplete relief. A chest CT scan showed bilateral mild pleural effusion. Given his occasional black stools and high serum calprotectin, a colonoscopy confirmed CD. Pulmonary manifestations may involve airway, parenchymal, and interstitial pathologies, but no distinctive pathological findings differentiate CD's pulmonary manifestations from other causes. In conclusion, isolated bilateral pleural effusion and the underlying pleuritis as a pulmonary manifestation of CD-characterized by dry cough and pleuritic chest pain, particularly preceding the diagnosis of CD-is extremely rare but possible.","PeriodicalId":45318,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Medical Case Reports","volume":"2024 10","pages":"omae113"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11465518/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142477236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Clinical examination and radiological findings showed pallor, epigastric tenderness, generalized lymphadenopathy and hepatosplenomegaly. An initial diagnosis of sepsis and micronutrient deficiency was made following findings of macrocytosis, hypersegmented neutrophils and toxic granulations on blood smear. Intervention with antibiotics did not improve symptoms rather her clinical presentation worsened with the onset of fever, dizziness, easy fatiguability and generalized weakness. Histology of lymph node biopsy reported a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. A repeat examination of the blood smear revealed budding yeast cells morphologically similar to Histoplasma capsulatum. This case emphasizes the need for a high index of suspicion of histoplasmosis in this at-risk population and the usefulness of a blood smear in diagnosing histoplasmosis.","PeriodicalId":45318,"journal":{"name":"Oxford Medical Case Reports","volume":"2024 10","pages":"omae116"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11465509/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142477237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We considered that the obstructive ileus induced intravascular dehydration, which led to toxic serum concentrations of lithium and magnesium, triggering the emergence of severe arrythmia induced by sinus dysfunction.
