Lifestyleconsiderations
WhenpatientswithCFhaveclosecontactwithanotherindividualwithCF,thereisariskofaquiring relevant bacterial infections (cross-infection). Nonetheless, robust peer support groups and virtual eventsexistandareencouraged. People with CF should avoid irritating inhaled fumes, dusts, or chemicals, including second-hand smoke. Ahigh-caloriedietwithvitaminsupplementationistypicallyrecommended. CFpatientsshouldmaintainasmuchactivityaspossible. Althoughfertility maybedecreased inwomenwithCFsecondarytothickened cervicalmucus,many womenwithCFhavetoleratedpregnancyaswell.Ideally,pregnanciesshouldbeplannedtooptimize patientstatusandcoordinatecarewithobstetrics.CFgeneticscreeningshouldbeofferedtopartnersof patientswithCF.
TreatmentofAcuteExacerbations
CommonCFexacerbationsymptomsincludeincreasedcough,changeinsputum,increasedshortnessof breath,fevers,weightloss,orreductioninlungfunctiononspirometry. Wheninahealthcaresetting,allpersonnelshouldimplementcontactprecautions.Ofnote,patientswith previousisolationofB.cepaciacomplexshouldbecaredforinaseparateareathanthosewithoutthis species. Antibioticsarethemaintreatmentforexacerbations.
Typically, cliniciansselectantibioticstowhichthepathogensare susceptible.However inchronic CFairwayinfection,itmaynotbepossibletoselectantibioticsinwhichallidentifiedpathogensare susceptible. P.aeruginosaisthemostfrequentpulmonarypathogen.Thestandardapproachhasbeentousetwo antipseudomonaldrugs toenhance activity.Acombinationofanantipseudomonal β-lactam and an aminoglycosideistypicallyrecommendedduringacuteexacerbations.
161
Ofnote,priorstudieshave
demonstratedthatthereisnocorrelationbetweeninvitrosusceptibilitytestingandclinicalresponse toaparticularantibiotic. Thedurationofantibiotictherapyisdictatedbytheclinicalresponse.Atleast14daysofantibiotics aretypicallyneededtotreatanexacerbation. Patients with CF have atypical pharmacokinetics and often require higher drug doses at more frequentintervalsduringanacuteexacerbation. Home IV antibiotic therapy is common, but hospitalization may allow better access to comprehensive therapy and diagnostic testing. Oral antibiotics are recommended only for mild exacerbations. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (CFF) recommends against the delivery of home antibioticsunlessresourcesandsupportareequivalenttohospitalsetting.
Thereisinsufficientevidencetorecommendroutineuseofsteroidsintreatmentofacuteexacerbations. Airwayclearanceshouldbeintensifiedduringanexacerbation. Chronic therapies such as bronchodilators, Pulmozyme (dornase), hypertonic saline, pancreatic enzymes,andCFTRmodulatorsshouldbecontinuedduringahospitalization. Othercomplicationsthatmayrequirehospitalizationinclude:
Hemoptysis: Basic treatment involves correction of coagulation factors, withholding chest physiotherapy, stopping inhaled antibiotics, andinitiationof IV antibiotics. Refractory cases may requirebronchialarteryembolization.  Pneumothorax: Unless small pneumothoraces are treated with chest tube placement. Surgical pleurodesis shouldbeconsideredincasesofrecurrent pneumothorax.Ingeneral, airwayclearance
https://t.me/med1917
measures that utilize positive pressure should be withheld in cases of a large pneumothorax, as shouldnoninvasiveventilation.
LungTransplantation
CFisthethirdmostcommonindicationforlungtransplantationworldwide. TheCFFoundationguidelinesrecommendlungtransplantreferralforanypatientwithCFwith:
anFEV1<50%predictedandevidenceofrapiddecline(20%dropinFEV1within12months) anFEV1<40%andotherevidenceofadvanceddisease(6MW<400m,hypoxia,hypercarbia,PH), or anypatientwithFEV1<30%.
AllpatientsundergoingtransplantevaluationshouldbetestedforthepresenceofNTMandB.cepacia complexinthesputum.ThepresenceofBurkholderiacenocepaciaisconsideredacontraindicationto lungtransplantationatmosttransplantcenters.
ReferralandFollow-Up
AllpersonswithCFshouldbefollowedatanaccreditedCFcarecenter. Patients with CF generally follow-up as an outpatient every 3 months with PFTs and yearly laboratoriesincludingvitaminlevelsandscreeningforCF-relateddiabetes. A multidisciplinary team ofCFspecialists, including physicians,nutritionists,respiratorytherapists, andsocialworkers,aidintheroutinecareofthesepatients.
Outcome/Prognosis
Predictors of increased mortality include advanced age, female gender, low weight, low FEV1, pancreatic insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, infection with B. cepacia, and higher frequency of acute exacerbations. Withimprovedtherapy,themediansurvivalhasbeenextendedtoover47years.

SolitaryPulmonaryNodule
GENERALPRINCIPLES
Thegoalofacarefulevaluationofthesolitarypulmonarynodule(SPN)istodetermineifthelesionis morelikelytobemalignantorbenign.Alesion>3cmhasahighlikelihoodofmalignancyandshouldbetreatedassuch,whereaslesions
<3cmneedmorecarefulassessment.
Nodules with benign characteristics should be closely followed so that invasive procedures with associatedriskscanbeavoided. Identifying early lung cancer is of the utmost importance because there is a >60% survival rate of patientswhohaveamalignantSPNremoved.
162
Definition
https://t.me/med1917
AnSPNisdefinedasaroundedlesion<3cmindiameter.Itiscompletelysurroundedbylung parenchyma,unaccompaniedbyatelectasis,intrathoracicadenopathy,orpleuraleffusion.Pulmonary nodules<8mmremainwithinthisdefinition;however,thereisevidencetosuggestthatthesenodules havealoweroverallmalignancyrisk.
162
Epidemiology
A2015,California-based,integratedhealthcaresystem’sreviewestimatedtheincidenceofpulmonary nodulestobeover1.5million.Thisvalueissusceptibletoerrorsassociatedwiththisformof methodology.However,itdoeshighlightthattheincidenceofSPNhasincreasedwithchangesinclinical practicefollowingtheNationalLungScreeningTrial.
163
Etiology
Although underlying etiologies for pulmonary nodules are varied, the most important designation clinicallyisdecipheringbetweenamalignantandanonmalignantprocess.  Malignancy accounts for approximately 40% of SPNs, although this may vary geographically
dependingontheprevalenceofnonmalignantprocessessuchashistoplasmosis.
Granulomas (both infectious and noninfectious) may account for 50% of undiagnosed SPNs, dependingontheprevalenceofcancerintheparticularpopulation. Theremaining10%arecomposedofbenignneoplasms,suchashamartomas(5%)andamultitudeof othercauses.
RiskFactors
SmokingisthemostimportantassociatedriskfactorforalmostallmalignantSPNs. Forinfectiousetiologies,animmunocompromisedstatepromotesanincreasedrisk.
LungCancerScreening
Screeninghigh-riskpatientsusinglow-dosechestCTresultedina20%relativereductioninmortality fromlungcancercomparedtoscreeningwithCXR.
164
DIAGNOSIS
DiagnosisoftheSPNismaderadiographically,usuallyviaCXRorCTscan. Mostfrequently,thenoduleisnotedincidentallyonastudyperformedforotherreasons(e.g.,chronic cough,chestpain,shortnessofbreath).
ClinicalPresentation
ThemajorityofSPNsarediagnosedincidentallybyradiographictestsdoneforotherreasons,sothere maynotbeovertsymptoms. Thereareinstanceswhenanodulemayprecipitatecough,chestpain,hemoptysis,orsputumproduction dependingontheetiologyandlocationoftheSPN.
HISTORY
Asktypicalscreeningquestionsformalignancyincludingweightlossandnightsweats.Hemoptysis may indicate malignancy but may also prompt investigations for ANCA-associated
https://t.me/med1917
vasculitis,TB,andhereditaryhemorrhagictelangiectasia(HHT). AskaboutarthritisandarthralgiasforpossibleundiagnosedCTDorsarcoidosis. Takeanexposurehistoryincludingrecenttravelhistory relatedtoendemic mycoses(histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis,etc.)aswellaspossibleTBexposures. Ahistoryofpreviousmalignanciesincreasestheriskofmetastaticdiseaseofthelung. PatientswhoareimmunosuppressedfromHIV,organtransplant,orchronicsteroidshaveincreasedrisk ofinfectiouscauses. Smokingis linked to85% oflung cancers. A patient’s riskoflung cancer decreases significantly5 yearsaftersmokingcessation,butnevertrulyreturnstobaseline. An occupational history is importantincluding possible exposure to asbestosis (associated with not only mesothelioma but also non–small-cell lung cancer), silica, beryllium, radon, and ionizing radiation,amongothers.
PHYSICALEXAMINATION
AlthoughtherearenospecificphysicalexaminationfindingsrelatedtoSPNs,evidenceforunderlying etiologiesmightbediscoveredwithathoroughexamination. Notethatsignsofweightlossorcachexiaaresuggestiveofmalignancy. Doa thorough lymph node examination.Acervical lymph node might provide aneasy diagnostic
targettodeterminetheetiologyofanSPN.
Performabreastexaminationinwomenandtesticularexaminationinyoungmen. Acarefulskinexaminationmayrevealtelangiectasias,erythemanodosum,rheumatoidnodules,orother findingsthatmightsuggestacause.
RiskStratification
The first step in managing an SPN is to stratify the patient in terms of malignancy risk: low-, intermediate-, or high-risk categories (Table 10-12). Risk stratification can be accomplished either qualitatively via clinical judgment or quantitatively using validated risk assessment tools. These approachesappeartobecomplementary.

IfCTDsorvasculitidesaresuspected,performappropriatetesting. Hyponatremiamay suggestsyndrome ofinappropriate antidiuretic hormoneassociatedwithprimary lungcancer,aswellasotherpulmonaryprocesses.
https://t.me/med1917
Hypercalcemiamightsuggestlungcanceraswellassarcoidosis. Anemiamayindicatechronicpulmonaryhemorrhage(e.g.,HHT)orachronicinflammatorydisease. Microbiologicstudies,particularlysputumculture,mayaidinthediagnosisofaninfectiousSPN. Sputumcytologyhaslimitedusebecauseyieldislowforperipherallylocated,smalllesions.
IMAGING
ThemainstayofdiagnosticevaluationofanSPNisviaradiographicstudies,primarilyCXR,chestCT, andpositronemissiontomography(PET)scan.
CXR:
ApreviousCXRisanimportanttoolintheinitialevaluationofanSPN. IfanSPNhasbeenpresentandunchangedonCXRfor>2years,thenfurtherevaluationmaynotbe warranted. Subsolid lesions should be followed for longer periods because the volume-doubling timeisextendedincertaintypesofnon–small-celllungcancers. If an SPN appears on a new radiograph in <30 days, it is likely not malignant and most likely infectiousorinflammatory. There are radiographicfindings thatmakeit more likelythata lesion is benign (calcifications, a laminatedappearance)ormorelikelymalignant(spiculated,irregularborder)(seeTable10-12). TheCXRis easytoobtainanddeliversalowdose ofradiation;however,ithaslimitationsinthe initialcharacterization,andcarefulcomparisonsovertimearerequiredforSPNevaluation.
ChestCT:
ChestCTis now considered themost important radiologicexaminationfor SPNevaluation. With fewexceptions,anSPNrequiresassessmentbyCT. Accuratevolumetricmeasurementoflesionsizeallowsprecisecomparisontodeterminestabilityor growth. Imagingallowsacarefulexaminationofmediastinallymphnodes. Thin cuts through the lesion are more sensitive than CXR for characterizing calcifications and laminationaswellasthemarginsofthelesion.
PETscan:
18-Fluorodeoxyglucose–PETcanhelpdistinguishmalignantandbenignlesions. PEThasasensitivityof80%–100%andspecificityof79%–100%fordetectingmalignancy.  False negatives can occur in bronchoalveolar carcinoma, carcinoid, and mucinous neoplasms, whereas false positives are common in nonmalignant “inflammatory” conditions (infectious and autoimmuneprocesses). Ahigherincidenceofbothfalse-positiveandfalse-negativeresultsoccursinnodules<10mm,thus discouragingtheuseofPETscaninthissituation.
166
PETscanismostcommonlyusedinthe evaluationoflow- tomoderate-riskindeterminatenodules forfurtherriskstratification(seeFigure10-6).
Contrast-enhancedCT:
TechniquesareavailableforusingcontrastenhancementandmeasurementofHounsfieldunitstorisk stratifyanSPNformalignancy. A multicenter analysis demonstrated high sensitivity but relatively low specificity for identifying malignantnodules.
167
This methodmaybe animportant tool for riskassessmentofanindeterminateSPNincenters that haveexperiencewiththetechniques.
DIAGNOSTICPROCEDURES
https://t.me/med1917
Ifanoduleisconsideredhighriskandthepatientisanappropriatesurgicalcandidate,thenthe bestapproachistoforegobiopsyandpursueresection.
AnyincreaseinsizeordensityofanSPNonserialimagingwarrantsadditionalinvestigation. Ifalesionhaslow-riskcharacteristics,thereisnoindicationtopursuebiopsyandsubjectingapatient toanunneededrisk. Nonsurgicalbiopsyviabronchoscopyortransthoracicneedleaspiration(TTNA)istypicallyindicated for patients with a nodule, which has intermediate risk for lung cancer. In addition, for patients in whom surgery represents significant risk secondary to comorbidities, a nonsurgical biopsy may be indicatedtodemonstratemalignancypriortosurgeryornonsurgicaltherapy. There are primarilytwo options for biopsyof anSPN:TTNA andflexible bronchoscopy. Choosing eithermodalityisbasedonnoduleandpatientfactors,aswellasinstitutionalexperience.Thesefactors includenodulesize,location,andfindingofemphysemaonCTchest.
Thistechnique isusuallyperformedunderthe guidanceoffluoroscopy,ultrasound,orCT(more common). This approach is most commonly used for nodules with a peripheral location and without anatomicimpedimenttoabiopsyneedle. SensitivityofTTNAforthediagnosisoflungcanceris80%–90%inselectedpatients. SpecificityforidentifyingmalignancyishighwithTTNA;however,thereisasignificantrateof nondiagnostic biopsies, and sensitivity depends on many factors, including nodule size and distancefromthepleura. Anondiagnosticbiopsydoesnotruleoutmalignancy. ThecomplicationsofTTNA arebleeding (1%),pneumothorax(15%), and6%–7% incidenceof pneumothoraxrequiringchesttubedrainage.
168
TTNA alone does not provide any additional information regarding the patient’s pathological staging.
Bronchoscopy:
Conventionalflexiblebronchoscopyisbestsuitedforcentralairwaylesionsandhasasensitivity of88%inmalignancy.Advancedbronchoscopictechniquesarerecommendedinthediagnosisof peripherallesionswheretheirdiagnosticyieldissuperiortothatofconventionalbronchoscopy. Advanced bronchoscopic modalities include radial probe endobronchial ultrasound and electromagneticnavigation,withsensitivitiesof73%and71%,respectively,forthedetectionof malignancyinperipheralnodules. Complete mediastinal and hilar lymph node examination for pathological staging may also be performedduringbronchoscopyforperipherallesiondiagnosis,obviatingtheneedforadditional procedures. Thecomplicationsofbronchoscopyarebleeding(2%–5%)andpneumothorax(2%–4%).
168
TREATMENT
Managementoflow-andintermediate-riskSPNsisoutlinedinFigure10-6. Overall treatmentstrategyis to identify lesionswith significant malignancyriskand pursue surgical resectionwhenpossible. If a specific etiology for the SPNis diagnosed (e.g.,aCTDor infection),then treatmentis targeted towardtheunderlyingprocess.
NonpharmacologicTherapies
https://t.me/med1917
Althoughsurgicalresectionispreferableinpatientswitheitherahigh-risklesionorbiopsy-proven malignancy,ifsurgicalresectionisnotanoption,othereffectivetherapiesexist.
Stereotacticradiationiscurrentlythemostwidelyusedtherapyinthisclinicalsituation.Thismode ofexternalbeamtherapyaimstodecreasecollateralradiation–induceddamagetoadjacentlungtissue. Therearemoreexperimentalapproaches,includingbrachytherapyandradiofrequencyablation,which arecurrentlyunderdevelopment.
SurgicalManagement
SurgicalresectionofanindeterminateSPNisindicatedinthefollowingsituations:
Theclinicalprobabilityofmalignancyismoderatetohigh(>60%). ThenoduleishypermetabolicbyPETimaging. Thenodulehasbeenprovenmalignantbybiopsy. Patientpreferenceforsurgerywherethepatientisanappropriatesurgicalcandidate.
Acombinationofsurgicaltechniques,includingVATS,mediastinoscopy,andthoracotomy,canleadto diagnosis (via intraoperative frozen section),staging, and potential cure duringa single induction of anesthesia.
Monitoring/Follow-Up
Foralow-orintermediate-riskpulmonarynoduleforwhichresectionisnotwarranted(seeFigure10-
6),desired,orpossible,routinefollow-upwithchestCTisstandardpractice.
Follow-upofSPNdependsonwhetheritisasolidorsubsolidnodule.Solidnodulesrequire2years ofsurveillance,andsubsolidnodulesrequireadditionalyearsofsurveillancetodocumentstability. Theupdated2017FleischnerSocietyrecommendationsaimtowarddecreasingthenumberofchestCT scans for incidentally detected SPN follow-up and to provide greater flexibility to clinicians and patientsforshareddecision-making.

PleuralDiseases
GENERALPRINCIPLES
The pleural lining is a serous membrane covering the lung parenchyma, chest wall, diaphragm, and mediastinum. Thepresenceofexcessfluidoranyamountofgasinthepleuralspaceisabnormal. The pleural membranecovering thesurface ofthe lung is knownas thevisceral pleura;theparietal pleuracoverstheremainingstructures. In betweenthe visceral and parietal pleura ofeachlung is thepleural space, a potential space that containsathinlayeroffluidofapproximately10mLinvolume. Theparietalpleurasecretesapproximately2400mLoffluiddaily,whichisreabsorbedbythevisceral pleura.
170
Definition
Apleuraleffusionisanaccumulationof>10mLoffluidinthepleuralspace.
Ahemothoraxreferstoapleuraleffusionthatmainlycomprisesblood.
171
Chylothoraxis a collection ofchyle withinthe pleural space. Chyle is a milky fluidconsisting of

A parapneumonic effusion is fluid collection in the pleural space as a result of a pneumonia/consolidation or bronchiectasis. The three types of parapneumonic effusions include uncomplicatedeffusion,complicatedeffusion,andempyema.
173,174
Anempyemareferstoinfectedfluidwithinthepleuralspace.
Apneumothoraxisacollectionofairinthepleuralspace.
Primaryspontaneouspneumothoraxoccurswhenthelungparenchymaisnormalwithoutanyobvious underlyinglungdisease.
175
Secondaryspontaneouspneumothoraxisacomplicationofunderlyingparenchymallungdisease.
175
Sometimes if air is trapped in the pleural space under high pressure, a tension pneumothorax develops,whichcanbefatalifnotrecognizedandtreated.

Epidemiology
MorethanonemillioncasesofpleuraleffusionoccurannuallyintheUS. Itisestimatedthatmalignantpleuraleffusionaffectsabout150,000peopleayearintheUS.Congestive heartfailureandparapneumoniceffusionarethepredominantetiologiesofpleuraleffusionintheUS.
174
Incidenceofpneumothoraxvarieswidelybygender,country,andrace.
Etiology
Pleuraleffusionshaveavarietyofcausesandarelistedbelow(Table10-14).
Empyemaisgenerallycausedbyextensionofaninfectionofthelungorsurroundingtissue.
Common microbial pathogens are S. aureus, Streptococcus species, H. influenza, and oral anaerobes. Empyemas are frequently polymicrobial in cases where aspiration is suspected, commonly becauseoforalflora.
Thethreemajorgroupedcausesofchylothoraxaremalignancy(50%ofcases),
172,178
trauma(25%),
andidiopathic(15%).
179
OtherrarecausessuchasLAM
180
andtraumatothoracicductaccountfor
10%.
Seventy-five percent of chylous effusions associated with malignancy are due to lymphoma­relatedobstructionofpleurallymphaticspreventingreabsorptionofpleuralfluid.
172
Trauma as a causative factor of chylothorax includes any cardiothoracic surgical procedure. It maytake1–2weekspostsurgeryforthechylothoraxtobecomeapparent. Inanumberofcases,chylothorax resultsfromtransdiaphragmatic leakageofchylousascites.
172
Causesofchylousascitesincludenephroticsyndrome,hypothyroidism,andcirrhosisoftheliver.
172
Hemothoraxmayresultfromtraumaoraniatrogenicetiologyandarerarelyspontaneous.
171
Othercausesofpleuraleffusionincludeheartfailure,anasarca,andpulmonaryembolism.
Secondary pneumothorax is often seen in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, AIDS, CF, TB, P. jiroveciipneumonia,sarcoidosis,pulmonaryfibrosis,asthma,Marfandisease,LAM,PLCH,trauma,or anycavitaryorcysticlungdisease.
