The patient was a 70-year-old man with diabetes mellitus, alcoholic liver disease and bronchial asthma treated with corticosteroid and long-acting β-agonist inhalants. He had also been treated with nivolumab for advanced malignant melanoma for two years with a partial response. He presented to our department with intractable cough, which was attributed to uncontrolled bronchial asthma. Two weeks later, he presented with a high fever and worsened cough. He was diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia based on severe inflammation revealed by laboratory tests and right upper lung consolidation on chest radiography. Antibiotics via either oral or parenteral administration were ineffective and no pathogen was detected in sputum or blood cultures. Based on the air-crescent sign observed on chest computed tomography and a diffuse pseudomembranous lesion on the airway epithelium that was observed via bronchoscopy along with positive serum Aspergillus antigen, a clinical diagnosis of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) was made and liposomal amphotericin B was initiated. Three days later, the patient developed massive hemoptysis, and he died of respiratory failure. Later, aspergillus-like mycelia were observed in the pathology of bronchial biopsy, supporting the clinical diagnosis of IPA. Although the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors has been reported to be beneficial for patients with some infectious diseases, it does not seem to be the case for patients with other infectious diseases including our patient.

The patient was a 55-year-old man who had been on hemodialysis for 6 years for diabetic nephropathy. He was clinically diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis with extrapulmonary lesion after 3 years of chronic fever. His fever subsided immediately after the beginning of antituberculosis drug therapy and the antituberculosis drugs were discontinued 3 days after the initiation of the therapy. He experienced a sense of drunkenness when he received isoniazid, apparently not in association with any of the other antituberculosis drugs given. His blood trough concentration of isoniazid was nearly equal to the usual peak levels measured in patients with normal renal function. Isoniazid is often prescribed for patients with chronic renal failure without dose-reduction, because of its hepatic metabolism. But blood level of INH was found to accumulate at high levels in this patient. The high blood concentration of isoniazid in this patient with chronic renal failure may have elicited his neurological side effect.
