Rationale: Despite clinical-proven benefits of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) on advanced lung cancer, rare but life-threatening immune-related adverse events (irAEs) have been reported. Pancreatitis is a rare irAE that can occur with any ICI.
Patient Concerns: A 53-year-old man with locally advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma was treated with radiochemotherapy and then durvalumab (anti-programmed cell death ligand 1 therapy).
Background: Pneumothorax is a serious complication of cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis. The aim of this study was to describe clinical futures, to highlight challenges of its management.
Methods: A retrospective multicentric and descriptive study including 65 patients treated for PT (1999-2015) was conducted to figure out clinical futures and its work-up.
