Broncholithiasis complicated with actinomycosis is a rare clinical disease.This paper reports a patient presenting cough and shortness of breath as the major symptoms.The diagnosis of broncholithiasis complicated with pulmonary actinomycosis was confirmed by chest CT,fiberoptic bronchoscopy,and biopsy of the lesion.The bron-choliths in the anterior segment of the right upper lobe were removed by repeated lavage,cryotherapy as well as the use of electrocautery snare and forceps under general anesthesia intubation bronchoscopy.After combined with anti-infection treatment,the patient's cough and shortness of breath improved significantly.Combined with reviewing the literature,this paper explores the pathophysiological mechanism,clinical manifestations,diagnosis and treat-ment of broncholithiasis complicated with actinomycosis,aiming to enhance the understanding and treatment of this disease.

Severe Chlamydia psittaci(C.psittaci)pneumonia with sudden sensorineural hearing loss(SSNHL)as the initial symptom is clinically rare.This paper reports a case of C.psittaci pneumonia whose initial symptom was hearing loss.During the disease course,clinical manifestations such as high fever,cough,and shortness of breath appeared successively.Chest CT results suggested pulmonary infection.After metagenomic next-generation sequencing of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,the diagnosis of C.psittaci pneumonia was confirmed.After anti-infec-tion treatment with moxifloxacin combined with doxycycline,hearing loss and pulmonary infection improved signifi-cantly.Combined with literature review,this study systematically explores the epidemiological characteristics,clini-cal manifestations,diagnostic methods,treatment schemes,and prevention strategies of C.psittaci pneumonia,ai-ming to provide diagnostic and treatment references for clinicians and microbiology laboratories to achieve early diag-nosis and treatment,avoid misdiagnosis and underdiagnosis,and improve patient prognosis.
