  • Acute nonbacterial pleuritis caused by spontaneous rupture of metastatic pulmonary adenocarcinoma. Abstract Text:

    Nonbacterial pleuritis caused by rupture of a metastatic adenocarcinoma is extremely rare and has not yet been reported. A 59-year-old man with a history of rectal cancer surgery 6 years earlier presented with a solitary lung mass in the periphery of the right lower lobe on computed tomography. Transbronchial biopsy disclosed a suspected metastatic adenocarcinoma, and he was admitted for pulmonary metastasectomy. He had been asymptomatic, but 4 weeks after the diagnostic bronchoscopy, the patient suddenly complained of a right back pain and dyspnea at rest; shortly after that, he developed a fever of 39 degrees C. A chest X-ray showed right pleural effusion, collapse of the right lower lobe, and elevation of the right diaphragmatic dome, but without pneumothorax. Emergent video-assisted thoracoscopy revealed a perforated tumor in the collapsed lower lobe, and a right lower lobectomy was carried out. The postoperative course was uneventful, and he was well without recurrent disease 2 years after pulmonary resection.
