The standard treatment for ABPM is steroid therapy. Nonetheless, this treatment increases the risk of infections and osteoporosis. Alternative therapies include immunomodulatory biologics and mucus plug removal by bronchoscopy. This report describes a case of a 70-year-old man diagnosed with BA in 2014 and treated with inhaled corticosteroids/long-acting beta-agonists, which were later discontinued for unknown reasons. He was presented to our department with a BA attack, including wheezing and desaturation. Computed tomography and laboratory examinations suggested ABPM; the patient underwent mucus plug removal. The final diagnosis was ABPM, and steroids and itraconazole were initiated. However, BA symptoms did not improve, and the mucus plug and desaturation persisted. Mepolizumab (100 mg/month) subcutaneously cleared the plug and improved BA. This case demonstrates that mepolizumab can treat patients with ABPM and refractory BA.","PeriodicalId":45846,"journal":{"name":"Respirology Case Reports","volume":"13 3","pages":"e70161"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11925694/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143693934","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}

Our case report presents a 60-year-old Asian male with KS who was incidentally diagnosed with KS upon presenting with an ischemic cerebrovascular accident (CVA). The patient had a longstanding history of poorly controlled type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension, presenting with acute right-sided weakness and speech impairment. His history of recurrent respiratory infections and infertility, combined with family findings of dextrocardia and male infertility, suggested KS. On physical examination, the patient exhibited signs of dextrocardia. Imaging confirmed situs inversus and dextrocardia, while neurological evaluation revealed an embolic stroke in the left middle cerebral artery territory. Certain cardiovascular anomalies in KS may affect stroke risk; however, their co-occurrence in the patient appears to be coincidental, given the patient's baseline risk for stroke. A high-resolution chest CT demonstrated bronchiectasis and carotid Doppler ultrasound identified atherosclerotic plaques, likely contributing to the stroke. This case highlights the need for heightened awareness of neurological events, such as stroke, in patients with KS. Cardiovascular risk factors, compounded by the complexity of the syndrome, require prompt evaluation and multidisciplinary care to prevent severe complications.","PeriodicalId":45846,"journal":{"name":"Respirology Case Reports","volume":"13 3","pages":"e70163"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11926249/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143693936","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}

Necrotizing pneumonia is a catastrophic infection of the lungs characterised by necrosis of the interstitial tissue. Although rarely reported, it has been described as a complication of COVID-19. The usual treatment for bronchopleural fistula involves endoscopic or surgical procedures. We present the case of a 5-year-old girl admitted with necrotizing pneumonia and difficult-to-control bronchopleural fistula, with a report of flu-like illness and a positive PCR test for COVID-19 2 months earlier. Over 38 days, several procedures were performed, including left-side tube drainage, thoracotomy, segmental resection, open window thoracotomy, and finally vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy. Twenty days after the start of VAC therapy, complete closure of the bronchopleural fistula was achieved. At 26 months of follow-up, the child remained asymptomatic, with radiological examinations showing pulmonary expansion and absence of intrapleural air.","PeriodicalId":45846,"journal":{"name":"Respirology Case Reports","volume":"13 3","pages":"e70134"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11925471/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143671408","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}
