One-Year Follow-Up after Endobronchial Valve Treatment in Patients with Emphysema without Collateral Ventilation Treated in the STELVIO Trial.
BACKGROUND One-way endobronchial valve (EBV) treatment has shown safety and efficacy at 6 months after treatment in patients with severe emphysema and confirmed absence of interlobar collateral ventilation. Longer follow-up in this subgroup is not available. OBJECTIVES To investigate the efficacy and safety of EBV treatment of the STELVIO cohort at a 1-year follow-up. METHODS Emphysema pati...
متن کاملEndobronchial Valves for Emphysema without Interlobar Collateral Ventilation.
BACKGROUND Bronchoscopic lung-volume reduction with the use of one-way endobronchial valves is a potential treatment for patients with severe emphysema. To date, the benefits have been modest but have been hypothesized to be much larger in patients without interlobar collateral ventilation than in those with collateral ventilation. METHODS We randomly assigned patients with severe emphysema a...
متن کاملThe early detection of lung cancer during follow-up of patients undergoing endobronchial one-way valve treatment for emphysema.
We describe the early detection of lung cancer during the follow-up of two emphysematous patients undergoing endobronchial treatment with one-way valves for severe dyspnea. In both cases, the lung function improvement achieved after the valves placement allowed their surgical treatment. In additional to standard follow-up for evaluating the progression of emphysema, such patients should be enro...
متن کاملEndobronchial valves for patients with heterogeneous emphysema and without interlobar collateral ventilation: open label treatment following the BeLieVeR-HIFi study
Outcomes in early trials of bronchoscopic lung volume reduction using endobronchial valves for the treatment of patients with advanced emphysema were inconsistent. However improvements in patient selection with focus on excluding those with interlobar collateral ventilation and homogeneous emphysema resulted in significant benefits in the BeLieVeR-HIFi study compared with sham treated controls....
متن کاملGo with the Flow: The Importance of the Assessment of Collateral Ventilation in Endobronchial Valve Treatment.
vided. At first, the BeLieVeR-HIFi study, a sham-controlled, randomized trial of EBV treatment, where visual assessment of fissure integrity by CT scan was used to select patients, showed a significant benefit in favor of EBV treatment over control [6] . However, post hoc analysis revealed that if the Chartis system (which was performed in this trail) had been used to select the patients, the o...
