Her medical history revealed that she had been admitted to the emergency department when her symptoms first developed. At this point she had been prescribed non-specific antibiotic and bronchodilating treatment, as paracardiac infiltration was detected on chest radiography and wheezing on auscultation. At follow-up, she was told that the infiltration on chest radiography had regressed; however, cough and chest tightness persisted and progressed. ER -
