An 87-year-old woman died of rapidly progressive pneumonia due to Aeromonas hydrophila shortly after a near-drowning event. Autopsy showed necrotizing pneumonia and postmortem cultures of both blood and lung revealed the organism. Fulminant pneumonia should be considered in patients of a near-drowning event.(Internal Medicine 39:1128-1130, 2000)

A 75-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) presented with long-term painful erythema on the right upper arm and left elbow. The patient was diagnosed with intralymphatic histiocytosis (ILH) based on the biopsy findings. Because the patient was unresponsive to single-agent treatment with methotrexate, infliximab and etanercept, we switched to tocilizumab (TCZ) treatment, which induced remission of the ILH. Our case suggests that TCZ may be a treatment option for ILH in patients with RA.
