Background: Lung mucinous adenocarcinoma has various genetic alterations, but there are no reported cases with exon 14 skipping mutations. Multiplex genetic testing is commonly assessed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and treatment usually comprises molecular targeted drugs. However, the efficacy of molecular targeted drugs in lung mucinous adenocarcinoma is not reported.

Article Synopsis
  • - Bronchial artery-pulmonary artery fistula (BPF) is a rare blood vessel issue related to conditions like congenital heart disease and usually shows up in adulthood alongside hemoptysis (coughing up blood) as a symptom.
  • - Bronchial Dieulafoy disease (BDD) is another uncommon vascular anomaly involving an abnormal artery in the bronchial tree, often linked to chronic inflammation or injury.
  • - This report highlights a unique case where BPF and BDD occurred together in a patient with recurrent hemoptysis, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis through angiography and bronchoscopy to improve clinical understanding of these conditions.

The etiology of hemoptysis is diverse and complex, with aorta aneurysm being identified as a rare cause of cryptogenic hemoptysis. Here, we reported a 56-year-old male patient who experienced hemoptysis due to a thoracic aorta aneurysm that persisted despite stent implantation. Further investigation revealed the presence of a lateral thoracic artery-pulmonary artery fistula and an aortobronchial fistula, diagnosed by angiography and multidisciplinary consultation.

Objectives: We aimed to reveal the incidence of lateonset noninfectious pulmonary complications and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome and risk factors involved in development.

Materials And Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we retrospectively investigated 745 patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in our hospital between January 2000 and December 2020. We evaluated demographic characteristics, comorbidities, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation characteristics to determine possible risk factors affecting development of lateonset noninfectious pulmonary complications and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome.
