Nonconventional clinical presentations of diseases are common in older adults. Even dramatic events, such as foreign body (FB) inhalation, can occur in a subtle and non-specific manner. Pill aspiration is a rare yet overlooked cause of airway injury. It accounts for approximately 7% of all FB aspirations. In contrast, oral dysphagia and polypharmacology, mainly administrated in solid oral dosage forms (SDOF), like tablets and pills, are common conditions in older adults. Herein, we present a case of SDOF aspiration in a 78-year-old man. FB inhalation developed with general clinical deterioration and neurological impairment (delirium) rather than overt respiratory symptoms. Bronchoscopy provided remarkable images of this unexpected finding. Caregivers and healthcare workers must be aware of the risk of SDOF aspiration and adopt proper safety measures. Early recognition and bronchoscopy for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes can be lifesaving in such cases.

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumors (PEComa) are rare mesenchymal neoplasms composed of cells that express melanocytic and myogenic markers and grow around small blood vessels. PEComa often show benign behaviors but can also be highly aggressive. In frail and more complex patients, many conditions can overlap, compounding the diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties inherent in rare diseases. Moreover, the complexity of modern patients introduces new and significant players in host-microbe interactions, and emerging pathogens represent a relevant challenge to modern healthcare. Among these pathogens is Eggerthella lenta, an anaerobic gram-positive bacterium of the normal gut microbiota associated with life-threatening infections. Here, we present a case of malignant pelvic PEComa with rapid metastatic progression in a 73-year-old man who presented with an E. lenta bloodstream infection. Approaching differential diagnosis with open-mindedness may assist in better imaging interpretation, surgery scheduling, and proper treatment planning. The non-specific clinical presentation might delay timely diagnosis, while the absence of well-consolidated guidelines undermines the accurate management of the disease, for which strict follow-up can favor better outcomes. Progress in diagnostic techniques, such as the implementation of MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight) mass spectrometry for micro-organism identification, helps with a more accurate pathogen diagnosis and characterization. This allows the implementation of the most appropriate therapy, as well as better surveillance of antibiotic resistance, infection prevention, and control measures. Nevertheless, a good dose of wisdom is vital to avoid overlooking potentially harmful pathogens, particularly in frail individuals.
