Foreign body removal using bronchoscopy and argon plasma coagulation.
Foreign body aspiration can be a life threatening event especially for young children with smaller diameters of airway size. The foreign body can result in body response and granulation tissue formation around the object which makes the foreign body removal difficult. In such situations surgical intervention is usually needed but with interventional pulmonology modalities we can restrict the ne...
متن کاملArgon plasma coagulation
Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC) is an application of gas discharges in argon in electrosurgery, which is increasingly used especially in endoscopy. The major application fields are haemostasis, tissue devitalization and tissue reduction.This review describes the physics and technology of electrosurgery and APC. Some characteristics of the argon discharge are shown and discussed, and thermal effe...

Currently, no adequate treatment is available for such patients. AIM The main objective of this study was to evaluate whether argon plasma coagulation (APC) is a...
متن کاملCase Report Successful Use of Endoscopic Argon Plasma Coagulation for Hemorrhagic Radiation Cystitis: A Case Report
Hemorrhagic radiation cystitis is an example of a typical radiotherapy-induced adverse event. However, the optimal treatment for hemorrhagic radiation cystitis is not known. There are limited data regarding the use of argon plasma coagulation for hemorrhagic radiation cystitis. Here, we present the use of argon plasma coagulation using a gastrointestinal endoscope to treat hemorrhagic radiation...
