Long-term hydroxychloroquine use resulting in cardiomyopathy and conduction abnormalities: a case report

Timothy Ryan, Laura Luttrell, Amit Shah, Kaitlyn Lam et autres

Background: Diagnosing the cause of undifferentiated left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in a patient with progressive heart failure symptoms can present a diagnostic challenge, with potential for both inherited and acquired aetiologies. Hydroxychloroquine-induced cardiomyopathy (HCQ-CM) is a rare complication of long-term hydroxychloroquine use. …

Accuracy of endobronchial ultrasound‐guided transbronchial needle aspiration for staging of non‐small cell lung cancer

Kimberley Chung, Jacqueline M. Bentel, Andrew Laycock

BACKGROUND: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is routinely performed to confirm a lung cancer diagnosis and/or to clinically stage disease. EBUS-TBNA findings may be used to determine whether patients can be offered potentially curative surgery. In this study, we evaluated the …
