Re-expansion pulmonary edema is a rare and potentially life-threatening complication that can occur after the rapid re-expansion of a collapsed lung due to pneumothorax or pleural effusion. It has a multifactorial pathogenesis, and risk factors for re-expansion pulmonary edema, such as chronic lung collapse, rapid re-expansion, and changes in pulmonary vascular permeability, have been identified. Clinical manifestations vary, ranging from almost asymptomatic to a rapidly fatal condition, and its incidence may be more common and less fatal than previously believed.

Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) is the most common complication of chimeric antigen receptor redirected T cells (CAR-T) therapy. CAR-T toxicity management has been greatly improved, but CRS remains a prime safety concern. Here we follow serum cytokine levels and circulating immune cell transcriptomes longitudinally in 26 relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma patients receiving the CAR-T product, ciltacabtagene autoleucel, to understand the immunological kinetics of CRS.

Re-expansion pulmonary edema (RPE) after chest drain insertion is rare. The objective of this clinical case report is to highlight the importance of this chest drain insertion complication. A 35-year-old man presented to the emergency department with a chief complaint of shortness of breath and pleuritic chest pain.

Re-expansion pulmonary oedema (RPE) is not so rare complication associated with sudden expansion of a collapsed lung. RPE has been most frequently reported following rapid drainage of a large pneumothorax or chronic pleural effusion. Development of RPE following removal of a large intrathoracic mass is not commonly recognised, though sporadic reports exist in the literature.

Background: Postoperative intracranial hypotension-associated venous congestion (PIHV) is a rare event. The authors report the case of a patient presenting with PIHV after spinal surgery following the sudden loss of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) induced by suction drainage.
Methods: A 69-year-old patient underwent uneventful revision surgery for wound dehiscence after lumbar surgery with placement of a subfascial suction drain.
