Endobronchial hamartoma removed by flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy via electrocautery.
Hamartomas are the most common benign tumors of the lung. It is most common peripherally in the parenchyma as solitary nodule or endobronchial lesion. Endobronchial form may cause obstruction of airway, atelectasis and recurrent pneumonia. Endobronchial hamartomas may be treated by surgical intervention or bronchoscopic excision (with rigid or flexible procedures). We are presenting a case of e...
متن کاملGiant endobronchial hamartoma resected by fiberoptic bronchoscopy electrosurgical snaring
Less than 1% of lung neoplasms are represented by benign tumors. Among these, hamartomas are the most common with an incidence between 0.025% and 0.32%. In relation to the localization, hamartomas are divided into intraparenchymal and endobronchial.Clinical manifestation of an endobronchial hamartoma (EH) results from tracheobronchial obstruction or bleeding. Usually, EH localizes in large diam...
متن کاملResection of an endobronchial hamartoma by cryotherapy
A 72-year-old man was referred to our hospital with an endobronchial mass spotted on chest computed tomography (CT). On examination, he was afebrile, but complained of cough and sputum. Laboratory test results were normal. His chest CT showed an ovoid fat attenuation nodule in the left upper lobe bronchus (Fig. 1A). Flexible bronchoscopy was performed to investigate the endobronchial lesion, an...
متن کاملLidocaine concentrations in endobronchial aspirates during flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy.
It is with interest that we read Dr. Goldberg’s letter. Although finding a pseudoaneurysm is common, the development of hemoptysis secondary to fistula formation is very rare. The observation that CT scan can be used to identify a patient with ventriculobronchial fistula is very important since many patients now undergo ventricular aneurysm repair and may be at risk for this rare complication.
متن کاملFactors affecting patients’ comfort during fiberoptic bronchoscopy and endobronchial ultrasound
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the factors that can affect the comfort of patients who underwent diagnostic fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) and diagnostic endobronchial ultrasonography (EBUS) for the first time and the effect of the patients' anxiety level on their comfort during the procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS We recorded the demographics of the patients, the medications they used prev...
