EUS-guided drainage of a mediastinal abscess.
A 61-year-old man with esophageal adenocarcinoma underwent minimally invasive esophagectomy and gastric pull-through. The initial postoperative course was without adverse events, and he was discharged home. However, on day 7 the patient was readmitted with fever, rapid atrial fibrillation, and leukocytosis. Chest CT scan revealed a 6.3 cm 4.6 cm mediastinal abscess adjacent to the gastric pull-...

A 42-year-old woman with recurrent bilateral endometrial ovarian cystoma presented with fever and pelvic pain caused by a tubo-ovarian abscess (TOA), which was resistant to several varieties of intravenous and oral antibiotics for 2 weeks (Case 1). Computed tomography (CT)-guided diagnostic aspiration for a rapid enlarged right ovarian cystoma through a transabdominal route confirmed that it ha...
متن کاملComputed tomography in patients with esophageal perforation.
Contrast esophagram is the diagnostic procedure of choice in patients with clinically suspected perforation of the esophagus. In patients in whom the usual clinical signs or symptoms are unrecognized and in whom the diagnosis is obscure, the diagnosis of a perforated esophagus may be suggested by the finding of mediastinal fluid and air on CT. Three patients are reviewed. The perforations inclu...
متن کاملCT-guided percutaneous drainage of an anterior mediastinal abscess with a 16 F catheter.
We report a case of anterior mediastinal abscess treated by percutaneous drainage under computed tomography (CT) guidance. The relationships of the abscess to the adjacent organs were clearly delineated by an intravenous injection of contrast material, and the drain was inserted between the sternum and the vasa thoracica interna. Selection of this route and the choice of a large-bore catheter (...
متن کاملSuccessful Late Management of Esophageal Perforation with T-Tube Drainage
The late management of spontaneous esophageal perforation is the most challenging problem for the surgeon. In this paper, we present a case in whom a spontaneous esophageal perforation was successfully treated by T-tube drainage after unsuccessful conservative treatment. The patient, a 68-year-old male, was admitted to the hospital with sudden upper abdominal pain. After 2 days, esophageal perf...
