Non-Surgical Pneumoperitoneum in Children
Pneumoperitoneum without intraabdominal hollow viscus perforation is termed as nonsurgical or spontaneous pneumoperitoneum, which does not demand surgical intervention. Because of rarity of this condition and symptomatic similarity with the pneumoperitomeum due to gut perforation, the condition diagnosed only after a negative laparotomy. Awareness of this entity, a detailed history and clinical...
متن کاملPneumothorax complicating therapeutic pneumoperitoneum.
Pneumothorax is a rare complication of artificial pneumoperitoneum. Thirty cases have been mentioned in the literature, but only 18 have been described in detail. Full descriptions have been given by Lumsden (1949), Yannitelli, Woodruff, Mueller, and Howard (1949), and Ross and Farber (1951). Jones and Yuill (1952) summarized 10 documented cases and added a case of their own. Since then reports...
متن کاملNon-surgical management of giant lung bullae during mechanical ventilation.
Giant lung bullae have a large impact on respiratory mechanics1,2 and make ventilator management difficult in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. The pathogenesis of lung bullae is varied. COPD-related emphysematous bullae are the most common type of lung bullae, whereas ventilator-associated lung bullae are rare. Treatment considerations include therapy for underlying disease, ventilat...

significantly higher than the proposed therapeutic range of 500-1,500 ng/ml.3 Evaluation of this patient's response to bretylium suggests that a broader therapeutic range exists for the drug than previously reported. Our experience with this patient and the wide range of doses summarized above suggests that some patients may require substantially higher parenteral doses of bretylium tosylate th...
متن کاملRespiratory mechanical effects of surgical pneumoperitoneum in humans.
Pneumoperitoneum for laparoscopic surgery is known to stiffen the chest wall and respiratory system, but its effects on resting pleural pressure in humans are unknown. We hypothesized that pneumoperitoneum would raise abdominal pressure, push the diaphragm into the thorax, raise pleural pressure, and squeeze the lung, which would become stiffer at low volumes as in severe obesity. Nineteen pred...
