She had been diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and bronchial asthma at the ages of 42 and 50 years, respectively. Her SLE was stable with the use of 1 mg of daily prednisolone for more than 5 years. To control her bronchial asthma a combination of a low-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) and long-acting β2-agonist (LABA) (125/5 µg of fluticasone/formoterol), 10 mg of montelukast and 400 mg of theophylline were prescribed. She had a smoking history of 28 pack-years and quit smoking at the age of 45 years.Pulmonary lymphoproliferative diseases are often associated with collagen diseases. In addition to treatment of the primary disease, additional treatments may be considered depending on the pathology presented in the case. https://bit.ly/3vKqsls ER -
