An Interesting Case of a Bilious Pleural Effusion.

ABSTRACT: Malignant pleural effusions are common complications in patients with primary or metastatic cancer to the lungs. In this article, we describe a unique case of a patient with history of diffuse pulmonary metastases from gallbladder adenocarcinoma who acutely developed a bilious pleural effusion following endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. We believe the bilious pleural effusion (cholethorax or bilothorax) developed as a complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography rather than tumor burden causing a fistula from the biliary tree to the right pleural space. We discuss possible mechanisms of formation of the bilious pleural effusion in our patient and present a literature review of previously reported cases of bilious pleural effusions.

Rare case of primary pleural lymphoma presenting with pleural effusion.

Project description:Primary pleural lymphoma is rare and has been described in association with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection or pyothorax. We report a rare case of primary pleural lymphoma in a 73-year-old man who presented with chest pain and no history of HIV infection or pyothorax. Chest imaging showed pleural thickening and pleural effusion. Thoracoscopic pleural biopsy was performed. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations conformed to that of a diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Physicians should be aware of this rare location of primary lymphoma and implement thoracoscopy as soon as possible.

High-throughput autoantibody analysis in malignant pleural effusion and tuberculosis pleural effusion.

Project description:BackgroundMalignant pleural effusion (MPE) and tuberculosis pleural effusion (TPE) are 2 kinds of common pleural diseases. Finding efficient and accurate biomarkers to distinguish the 2 is of benefit to basic and clinical research. In the present study, we carried out the first high-throughput autoantibody chip to screen the beneficial biomarker with samples of MPE and TPE and the corresponding serum.MethodsWe collected pleural effusion and serum of patients with MPE (n = 10) and TPE (n = 10) who had been in Beijing Chao-Yang hospital from June 2013 to August 2014. Using RayBio Human Protein Array-G2 to measure the concentration of 487 defined autoantibodies.ResultsFold changes of Bcl-2-like protein 11 (BIM) autoantibody in MPE-serum/TPE-serum and MPE/TPE groups were 10 (P = .019) and 6 (P = .001); for decorin autoantibody, MPE-serum/TPE-serum ratio was 0.6 (P = .029), and MPE/TPE ratio was 0.3 (P < .001).ConclusionBIM autoantibody is a promising MPE biomarker by high-throughput autoantibody analysis in MPE and TPE.

Human pleural effusion LC-MSMS

Project description:We screened pleural effusion proteomes of mesothelioma and lung adenocarcinoma patients to identify novel soluble mesothelioma biomarkers. We performed quantitative mass spectrometry-(MS-) based proteomics using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) and used narrow range immobilized pH gradient/high resolution isoelectric focusing (IPG/HiRIEF; pH 4 to 4.25) prior to analysis by nano liquid chromatography-coupled MS/MS. Pleural effusions from patients with malignant mesothelioma (n=6), lung adenocarcinoma (n=6), or benign mesotheliosis (n=7) were analyzed, and more than 1,300 proteins were identified.

Pleural Effusion Caused by Mycolicibacterium mageritense in an Immunocompetent Host: A Case Report.

Project description:Mycolicibacterium mageritense (M. mageritense) is a rare species among rapidly growing mycobacteria, and M. mageritense pleurisy is very rare. Here, we report for the first time, an immunocompetent patient with pleurisy caused by M. mageritense. The patient had no history of immunodeficiency and no recurrence of lung cancer after surgery. However, 8 months after surgery, he developed a new lung shadow and pleurisy. Although whole-genome analysis of the colony cultured from the patient's pleural fluid revealed M. mageritense, we could not identify it in time, resulting in a poor outcome. M. mageritense pleurisy in this case might have occurred via a bulla rupture of the lung lesion because computed tomography of the patient's chest showed pneumothorax and a lung lesion in contact with thoracic cavity. This case emphasized that nontuberculous mycobacterial pleurisy should be considered in the differential diagnoses of pleural effusion even in immunocompetent patients. Advancement of comprehensive and rapid analyses of genomic data from clinical specimens will lead to better treatment strategies.

The diagnostic utility of pleural markers for tuberculosis pleural effusion.

Project description:Tuberculosis pleural effusion (TPE) is common in clinical practice, and its diagnosis remains a challenge for clinicians. Ziehl-Neelsen staining, PE Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture, and biopsy are the gold standards for TPE diagnosis; however, they are time-consuming, invasive, observer-dependent, and insensitive. PE markers represent a rapid, low-cost, and non-invasive objective diagnostic tool for TPE. In the past decades, several PE biomarkers have been developed, and their diagnostic accuracy has been evaluated in many studies. Here, we reviewed the literature to summarize the diagnostic accuracy of these biomarkers, especially using the evidence from systematic review and meta-analysis. The current research strongly suggests that adenosine deaminase (ADA), interferon-gamma (IFN-?), and interleukin 27 (IL-27) have extremely higher diagnostic accuracy for TPE, while the diagnostic accuracy of interferon gamma release assays (IGRAs), tumor necrosis factor-? (TNF-?), and interferon-?-induced protein 10 kDa (IP-10) is moderate. Although some evidence supports C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 9 (CXCL9), CXCL11, CXCL12, sFas ligand, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), calpain-1, spectrin breakdown products (SBDP), matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), soluble CD26 (sCD26), soluble interleukin 2 receptor (sIL-2R) as useful diagnostic markers for TPE, more support is needed to validate their diagnostic accuracy. Finally, nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) have extremely high diagnostic specificity, but their sensitivity is low. Taken together, ADA is the preferred marker for TPE because its low cost and suitability for standardization.

Malignant Pleural Effusion: Diagnosis and Management.

Project description:Symptomatic malignant pleural effusion is a common clinical problem. This condition is associated with very high mortality, with life expectancy ranging from 3 to 12 months. Studies are contributing evidence on an increasing number of therapeutic options (therapeutic thoracentesis, thoracoscopic pleurodesis or thoracic drainage, indwelling pleural catheter, surgery, or a combination of these therapies). Despite the availability of therapies, the management of malignant pleural effusion is challenging and is mainly focused on the relief of symptoms. The therapy to be administered needs to be designed on a case-by-case basis considering patient's preferences, life expectancy, tumour type, presence of a trapped lung, resources available, and experience of the treating team. At present, the management of malignant pleural effusion has evolved towards less invasive approaches based on ambulatory care. This approach spares the patient the discomfort caused by more invasive interventions and reduces the economic burden of the disease. A review was performed of the diagnosis and the different approaches to the management of malignant pleural effusion, with special emphasis on their indications, usefulness, cost-effectiveness, and complications. Further research is needed to shed light on the current matters of controversy and help establish a standardized, more effective management of this clinical problem.
