Nocardia cyriacigeorgica Identified by Bronchial Washing During Evaluation of Radiologic Progression in a Patient With Prior Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Diseases

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
In this case of pulmonary nocardiosis complicating prior nontuberculous mycobacterial pulmonary disease, repeat bronchial washing cytology revealed filamentous organisms suggestive of ongoing nocardial infection despite negative cultures. Bronchoscopic sampling may therefore aid in not only initial diagnosis but also reassessment when sputum studies ...

Atypical Behavior in a Typical Carcinoid: When Minimal Proliferation Meets Lympho‐Vascular Invasion—A Case Report

open access: yesThoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 14, July 2026.
Left: A 46‐year‐old non‐smoking female with a 2.4 cm right hilar mass (cT1cN0M0). Middle: Postoperative pathology reveals discordance between low proliferation (Ki‐67 < 2%) and unexpected focal lympho‐vascular invasion, with concomitant granulomatous inflammation. Right: After VATS lobectomy (pN0) and active surveillance, no recurrence occurred over 20
