Primary Biliary Cholangitis With Pulmonary Manifestations and Concurrent Enterococcus Pneumonia: A Diagnostic Challenge Resembling Sarcoidosis or Silicosis.

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is common in females during middle age, presenting with fatigue and itching. In our case, an African-American male patient presented with abdominal pain, vomiting, fatigue, and lung manifestations such as interstitial lung disease, granulomatous lung disease, and pulmonary hypertension. In our case, the patient reported abdominal pain and fatigue with abnormal chest X-ray findings (bilateral pulmonic nodular lesion with calcifications), which mimicked silicosis/sarcoidosis lung findings such as bronchiectasis and parenchymal nodules.

Workup and Management of Recurrent Attacks of Post-bariatric Hypoglycemia in a Patient With Non-alcoholic Steatohepatitis.

Bariatric surgery is an established treatment option for patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as well as non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and is said to effectively reduce hepatic inflammation as well as steatosis in these patients. However, bariatric surgery is associated with multiple complications, including nutritional deficiencies, malnutrition, post-bariatric hypoglycemia (PBH), anastomotic leaks, and bowel strictures. This case report describes a rare but significant complication of post-bariatric surgery hypoglycemia in a patient with NASH, which started almost six months after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery.
