Proximal bronchial balloon dilation for embedded distal airway foreign bodies.
INTRODUCTION Distal embedded airway foreign bodies can be challenging to manage. Endoscopic retrieval techniques, such as the use of appropriately sized graspers or a Fogarty catheter passed distally to the foreign body and inflated to pull the foreign body proximally, are mainstay. Successful retrieval may become more difficult as foreign bodies become lodged more distally in segmental or subs...

A 9-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital because of chronic cough. Chest examination showed a decrement in lung sound of right hemi-thorax with expiratory wheeze.

متن کاملNovel bronchoscopic balloon dilation for patients with bronchostenosis caused by bronchial tuberculosis: a case report
INTRODUCTION Bronchoscopic balloon dilation is a common method in the treatment of bronchostenosis but it is not an effective treatment due to its short dilating time (3 minutes) and low pressure (<3atm). Until recently, the reported highest dilating pressure was ≤6atm; however, this is not enough pressure to dilate a bronchostenosis because of the resistance of the bronchus. We hypothesized th...
متن کاملApplication of impulse oscillometry and bronchial dilation test for analysis in patients with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Impulse oscillometry (IOS) is a good method for measuring airway resistance. The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic contribution of IOS combined with bronchial dilation test (BDT) when distinguishing between patients with asthma and those with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). 870 were enrolled in the study including 561 patients with asthma, 100 patients with COPD and 2...
