Non-Small cell lung cancer invading the chest wall represents an advanced stage of the disease. Chest wall resection may be achieved in up to 100% of the patients, and the ensuing defect requires to be reconstructed in 40% to 64% of cases. Once a surgical challenge, chest wall resection is no longer a technical problem and en bloc chest wall and lung resections regularly provide good results. H...
متن کاملImages in anesthesiology: thyroid cancer invading the trachea.
A 43-YR-OLD woman presented with an enlarging neck mass. Computed tomography demonstrated a large thyroid mass invading the trachea. The two images (see figure), Sagittal and Axial, show the intratracheal portion of the mass beginning 3.75 cm below the vocal cords, extending for 3 cm, and obstructing approximately 75% of the tracheal lumen. The patient was breathing comfortably while supine. To...
متن کاملSparing Surgery for the Successful Treatment of Thyroid Papillary Carcinoma Invading the Trachea: A Case Report
Published reports on salvage treatment for trachea reconstruction after total thyroidectomy or partial tracheotomy are available, some of them using structures of the trachea itself, auricular cartilage, a musculocutaneous flap, or other methods. In our report, we emphasize the importance of a search for a new material and approach for sparing surgery. The purpose of this article is to describe...
متن کاملRecombinant Human Thyrotropin-Aided Radioiodine Therapy in Tracheal Obstruction by an Invading Well-Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
Papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs) usually extend to lymph nodes in the neck and mediastinum. Rarely, they invade the neighboring upper airway anatomical structures. We report a 56-year-old woman who presented with symptoms of upper airway obstruction. Imaging studies revealed a lesion derived from the thyroid which invaded and obstructed the trachea, which appeared to be a highly differentiat...
متن کاملTopic: SURGERY FOR THYROID CANCER Title: Radio-guided surgery for non-I-avid thyroid cancer
Outcome: Twenty-three women and 14 men were followed after RGS for 35.4 + 12.5 months (range 9-57). There were 33 papillary (one “tall” cell variant), 2 follicular, and 2 Hürthle cell cancers. In 7 patients, thyroid cancer recurred in the neck while cervical lymph node metastases were found in 31 patients (one patient had papillary cancer both in the thyroid bed and cervical lymph nodes). Sixty...
