Pulmonary manifestations in hyper IgE syndrome: A case series and review of Indian literature.
Lung India
November 2024
Department of Pulmonary Medicine, Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences, Hyderabad, Telangana, India.
Recurrent pulmonary infections starting from childhood often prompt evaluation for primary immunodeficiency disorders (PIDs). Hyper IgE syndrome (HIES) is a less common PID characterised by recurrent skin and pulmonary infections associated with elevated IgE levels. Staphylococcal infections are more commonly seen in these individuals, resulting in structural lung abnormalities such as pneumatoceles and bronchiectasis.

Department of Critical Care, Abbott Northwestern Hospital, Allina Health, Minneapolis, MN, USA.
Article Synopsis
- Blastomycosis can severely affect the lungs and is associated with high mortality rates, leading some patients to require veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) for rescue therapy.
- A recent report tracked eight patients with respiratory failure from blastomycosis who were treated with VV-ECMO between 2019 and 2023, showing promising survival rates with all patients surviving ECMO decannulation and seven discharged from the hospital.
- The study highlights that starting ECMO support early may improve outcomes for these patients, despite some challenges in managing individuals with obesity and noting common post-treatment complications like pulmonary infiltrates.
Recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax secondary to lung cystic lesions in a case of convalescent COVID-19: a case report and literature review.
BMC Pulm Med
July 2024
Department of Infectious Disease, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, No. 1, DongJiaoMinXiang, DongCheng District, Beijing, China.
Background: While spontaneous pneumothorax has been documented in COVID-19 patients, reports on recurrent spontaneous pneumothorax due to cystic lesions in convalescent COVID-19 patients are scarce. The progression of these lung cystic lesions remains inadequately explored.
Case Presentation And Literature Review: An 81-year-old male, a non-smoker with a history of rheumatoid arthritis, presented with fever, cough, and expectoration for 14 days.
