چکیده

success of an anticoagulatory therapy, as during clopidogrel therapy, and reflects the success of platelet activation during an anticoagulatory therapy. Therefore we were wondering whether the authors think that VASP phosphorylation could be a useful monitor in their experimental system, and whether the monitoring the extent of VASP phosphorylation could be a valuable tool to monitor the clinical effectiveness if an inhaled nitric oxide therapy.

[Selective lobar blockade with a Coopdech blocker combined with a double-lumen endotracheal tube for lung metastases resection by laser].

In recent years, laser resection of lung metastases has been established as the standard procedure worldwide. To avoid airway fire, it is necessary to collapse the surgical lung. The selective lobar bronchial blockade is a technique that allows one-lung ventilation while the operated lobe is collapsed in patients with previous pulmonary resection requiring subsequent resection or with limited p...

Severe tracheobronchial stenosis and bronchiectasis complicating ulcerative colitis

A 37-year-old woman with a 20-year history of ulcerative colitis (UC) was admitted with complaints of cough and increasing sputum production. Chest computed tomography showed severe stenosis of the left main bronchus and bronchiectasis of the left lower lobe. Biopsy specimens from the area of bronchial stenosis showed chronic inflammation with lymphocyte infiltration, and we diagnosed respirato...

Case report: Endotracheal tube malposition in a patient with a tracheal bronchus.

PURPOSE A tracheal bronchus is a congenital abnormality of the tracheobronchial tree, in which a displaced or accessory bronchus arises from the trachea superior to its bifurcation. We report a patient with a tracheal bronchus that was found incidentally during surgery in the prone position, and the potential airway management problems which may have ensued. CLINICAL FEATURES A 70-yr-old fema...

A Comparative Study of Treatment Response of Respiratory Distress Syndrome in Preterm Infants: Early Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation versus Early Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Background Infant respiratory distress syndrome (IRDS) is one of the main causes of serious complications and death in preterm infants. Both Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (NCPAP) and Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) are known as the most common treatment strategies for IRDS. The present study intended to compare NCPAP and NIPPV in the treatment of preterm inf...

Treatment of multiple-level tracheobronchial stenosis secondary to endobronchial tuberculosis using bronchoscopic balloon dilatation with topical mitomycin-C.

BACKGROUND Tracheobronchial stenosis is a known complication of endobronchial tuberculosis. Despite antituberculous and steroid therapy, the development of bronchial stenosis is usually irreversible and requires airway patency to be restored by either bronchoscopic or surgical interventions. We report the use of balloon dilatation and topical mitomycin-C to successful restore airway patency. ...
