Abstract

Case Presentation: A 55-year-old Chinese man without significant medical history presented with progressive chest discomfort and night sweats for the past 2 months. He experienced nonexertional chest tightness and palpitation at night, not associated with dyspnea. These symptoms usually lasted for a few minutes and resolved spontaneously. He also reported night sweats but denied fever, chills, or weight change. He had never smoked and denied recent contact with anyone known to be ill.
