Successful Combined Autologous Blood and Minocycline Pleurodesis for Intractable Bilateral Pneumothorax in an Elderly Patient With Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema: A Case Report

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
We describe reproducible, complication‐free control of bilateral pneumothoraces in an octogenarian with CPFE using combined autologous blood and minocycline pleurodesis. ABSTRACT Bilateral pneumothorax in elderly patients with combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) is rare and often precludes surgery.
