A 20-year-old patient with cystic fibrosis (CF) complicated by pansinusitis, pancreatic insufficiency, and diabetes presented to the local ED after an episode of large-volume hemoptysis at home. At baseline, she had advanced lung disease (FEV 1 , 0.97 L; 31% predicted) and upper lobe-predominant fibrocavitary changes. She was intermittently followed at a regional lung transplant center. She was previously evaluated for transplant but was not listed at the time of this presentation because of nontuberculous mycobacteria infection. She had never used tobacco, without reports of recreational inhaled drug use. Her mother had CF, and one of her brothers died in 2018 at age 24 of respiratory failure resulting from the disease.
