No Time to Bleed! Ultrasound‐Guided Management of a Pleural Biopsy Complication: A Case Report

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Ultrasound‐guided biopsies allow direct visualisation of target lesions, improve sampling site selection and have shown a significant reduction in major complications. Our case shows the efficacy of intrapleural adrenaline instillation in the management of pleural bleeding due to ultrasound‐guided pleural biopsy. ABSTRACT Malignant pleural disease is a

Recurrent Pneumothorax With Bronchopleural Fistula in Primary Multidrug‐Resistant Pulmonary Tuberculosis: A Challenging Case

open access: yesRespirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
A 41‐year‐old man with primary multidrug‐resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (MDR‐TB) developed recurrent pneumothorax and a bronchopleural fistula (BPF). Despite persistent air leak (PAL) after initial video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), definitive open thoracotomy with decortication and fistula repair led to sustained lung re‐expansion.
