Airborne metals and malignant pleural effusions: the role of oxidative stress

Frontiers in Toxicology
An excess of pleural fluid production can result in a condition known as pleural effusion, characterized by the accumulation of fluid in the space between the lungs and the chest wall. Malignant pleural effusions are defined as the presence of neoplastic

The Heart of the Thymus: A Rare Tale of Nonischemic Cardiomyopathy in the Absence of Myasthenia Gravis

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Thymomas are rare epithelial tumors of the anterior mediastinum known for their association with autoimmune and paraneoplastic syndromes, most notably myasthenia gravis (MG). Cardiomyopathy is an exceptionally rare paraneoplastic manifestation.

Autopsy‐Proven Immune‐Mediated Hepatitis With Rapid Liver Atrophy Despite Minimal Aminotransferase Elevation After Durvalumab Plus Tremelimumab Therapy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Immune‐mediated hepatitis caused by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is typically suspected based on aminotransferase elevation; however, biochemical signals may be blunted in advanced cirrhosis, potentially delaying recognition. A 71‐year‐old woman with cirrhosis due to metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis and Barcelona Clinic ...

ECMO Support in Paraneoplastic Pemphigus With Respiratory Failure: A Case Report With Immune Cell Monitoring

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP) is a life‐threatening autoimmune blistering disease with a mortality rate of 70%–90%, driven largely by respiratory complications such as bronchiolitis obliterans. Managing respiratory failure in these patients remains exceptionally difficult.

Pleural Calcified Tumor Misdiagnosed as Peripheral Lung Cancer: A Case Report and Analysis of Imaging Differential Points

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
Pleural calcified tumor. ABSTRACT Pleural calcified solitary fibrous tumor, though rare, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of peripheral lung nodules. Recognizing key imaging features such as broad‐based pleural attachment and coarse calcification can prevent misdiagnosis and avoid unnecessary lung resection, thereby preserving ...
