Abstract

Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) syndrome is an emerging adult-onset systemic autoinflammatory disorder affecting multiple organ systems. While lung involvement is common in this syndrome, literature regarding specific patterns is sparse. In this report, we present a case description of a patient with VEXAS syndrome who presented at the emergency department on two separate occasions with acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) and diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH). A literature review with a comparison of our observed findings to the general findings of VEXAS syndrome, AIP, and DAH is provided. This report underscores the rarity of specific pulmonary manifestations associated with VEXAS syndrome, contributing valuable insight to the limited literature available on this topic.
