Article Abstract
Foreign body aspiration (FBA) should be considered in the differential diagnosis of pediatric respiratory cases, particularly when symptoms are atypical and bilateral lung involvement is present. Early recognition and prompt intervention are crucial to preventing severe complications.

Birt-Hogg-Dubé syndrome (BHDS) is an autosomal dominant inherited disorder caused by mutation in a tumour suppressor gene, FLCN, leading to skin tumours (fibrofolliculomas), renal tumours and pulmonary cysts. Lung involvement is predominantly observed in 70% of the cases of BHDS, manifesting in the form of recurrent primary spontaneous pneumothorax. This video tutorial showcases the surgical management of recurrent right primary spontaneous pneumothorax in a young adult with a history of multiple episodes of bilateral pneumothorax managed by surgical intervention previously.

Background: Mucormycosis is a rare, rapidly progressive fungal infection with a high mortality rate. However, clinical data of mucormycosis patients, especially those related to adverse outcomes in China, remain limited.
Objective: To enhance understanding of the clinical characteristics of different infection site mucormycosis and identify the factors associated with adverse outcomes.
A Tale of Overlapping Autoimmune Serologies: Diagnosing Hydralazine-Induced Antineutrophilic Cytoplasmic Antibody (ANCA)-Associated Vasculitis (AAV) Related With Isolated Pulmonary Involvement.

Hydralazine is an antihypertensive that can induce immune-related adverse effects, such as hydralazine-induced lupus and hydralazine-induced antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). AAV involves necrotizing inflammation of small blood vessels, manifesting as fever, malaise, arthralgia, and myalgia, potentially leading to organ failure. Diagnosis includes clinical evaluation, serological testing for ANCA, and histopathological examination, confirmed by necrotizing granulomatous inflammation in affected tissues.

Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) is commonly described in individuals recovering from immunosuppression, particularly in HIV-positive patients initiating antiretroviral therapy. However, a similar rebound phenomenon can occur postpartum, a period marked by a shift from an immunotolerant to a pro-inflammatory state. IRIS in this context is underrecognized and may present atypically, complicating timely diagnosis.

is a protozoan parasite that typically causes self-limited diarrhea in healthy individuals but can result in prolonged, severe illness in those who are immunocompromised. While this infection is well recognized in HIV-positive patients, it is less frequently reported in individuals with lupus nephritis on immunosuppressive therapy. We report the case of a 27-year-old man with biopsy-confirmed class IV lupus nephritis who was receiving cyclophosphamide and corticosteroids.
