A thoracic computed tomography (CT) showed a diffuse pulmonary cystic disease suggesting advanced Langerhans cell histiocytosis (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>).

Post-transplant staging through 18-flour-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18-FDG-PET) did not suggest evidence of distant metastasis. Two-months later, due to severe back pain, a hip-CT showed a lytic lesion in the sacrum with joint bone destruction and cortical disruption. The 18-FDG-PET revealed a hyper-metabolic focus (maximum SUV 11.6) in the same location.

It is recognized that both entities share multiple common genetic, molecular and cellular processes. Some studies also describe a preferential distribution of tumors in lower lobes suggesting a relationship between fibrotic areas and cancer development, a phenomenon called as “scarcinoma”, although it is premature to prove a direct association with this finding.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a></p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">PLCH is known as an uncommon interstitial lung disease in young adults with an unpredictable course that may be associated with an increased susceptibility to the development of malignant neoplasms.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> Lung cancer is the most common solid organ malignancy occurring in approximately 5% of PLCH patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> An interesting feature related to the pathogenesis of PLCH is the presence of a recurrent BRAF<span class="elsevierStyleSup">V600E</span> mutation present in almost 50% of LCH lesions.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> This mutation is also found in other different tumors<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> supporting the association between PLCH and neoplastic diseases.

There are no protocols to guide the surveillance of such nodules: CT screening is recommended when the nodules are inferior to 8<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm, and PET-CT should be performed when the nodules are over 8<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm with a low or moderate pretest probability of malignancy.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> Endobronchial ultrasonography with transbronchial needle aspiration is one of the diagnostic techniques to be considered for histological sampling in patients with high pretest probability of malignancy.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> In our particular case, during the time on waiting list for transplant, annual thoracic CT showed progression of disease to pulmonary fibrosis with pulmonary nodules that remained stable over time. Evaluating retrospectively, some of those nodules could have been of neoplastic origin, however the invasive diagnostic approaches available at that time were extremely risky for the patient due to the possible fatal complications, namely respiratory failure.</p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">An interesting aspect of this case is the disagreement between the initial and post-transplant histological diagnosis. As far as we know, there are no published papers analyzing the histological transformation that can occur after lung transplant, despite descriptions of some ILDs evolving to pulmonary fibrosis over time. An unpublished retrospective study demonstrated that in the majority (80.5%) of patients submitted to lung transplant due to ILD their explanted lungs showed a histologic pattern of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP), although only one third of them had previous diagnosis of IPF.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a> This finding suggests a fibrotic evolution between initial diagnosis and lung transplant in non-IPF patients, which is consistent with the finding of pulmonary fibrosis on the resected lungs from our patient.</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another increased risk factor for neoplastic disease is the immunossupression that was started some years before the lung transplant. MMF is inclusively described as being related to tumor progression, possibly due to various mechanisms, including disruption of apoptosis and DNA repair.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> After lung transplant, managing immunosuppressive therapy was the most challenging approach. It was decided to discontinue MMF and remain with tacrolimus and prednisone at the lowest limit of the desired range.</p><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This case offers some noteworthy learning points. The increased risk of primary lung cancer in lung transplant candidates must be acknowledged. Certain imaging features, including pulmonary nodules or masses, should be followed or biopsied, depending on how advanced the ILD is and the urgency for transplant. Patients with ILD should undergo bronchoscopy lavage for cytological samples. It is important to have a high level of suspicion for neoplastic disease since the clinical scenario does not always point to this differential diagnosis. This is reflected in the present case, as the patient had only a remote smoking history and had no on-going weight loss or other signs that would suggest a concurrent malignant disease. This case also reinforces the need for research for noninvasive blood tests that could identify neoplasms. These tests would be extremely useful in such challenging clinical situations, once the invasive alternative diagnostic approaches they have are highly risky.</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0020">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors have no conflicts of interest to declare.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:5 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Introduction" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Clinical case" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Conflicts of interest" ] 4 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2019-05-13" "multimedia" => array:2 [ 0 => array:8 [ "identificador" => "fig0005" "etiqueta" => "Figure 1" "tipo" => "MULTIMEDIAFIGURA" "mostrarFloat" => true "mostrarDisplay" => false "figura" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "imagen" => "gr1.jpeg" "Alto" => 532 "Ancho" => 1255 "Tamanyo" => 89939 ] ] "detalles" => array:1 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "at0015" "detalle" => "Figure " "rol" => "short" ] ] "descripcion" => array:1 [ "en" => "<p id="spar0005" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">Pre-transplant computed tomography of the chest in lung window showing a diffuse change in the pulmonary architecture with multiples cists, some of them confluent with thin walls (large arrows) in relation with Langerhans cell histiocytosis.
