Tracheomalacia and tracheobronchomalacia may be primary abnormalities of the large airways or associated with a wide variety congenital acquired conditions. The evidence on diagnosis, classification management is scant. There no universally accepted severity. Clinical presentation includes early-onset stridor fixed wheeze, recurrent infections, brassy cough even near-death attacks, depending site severity lesion. Diagnosis usually made by flexible bronchoscopy in free-breathing child but...
Infants with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) have significant mortality and long-term morbidity. Only 60–70% survive usually those in high-volume centres. The current Task Force, therefore, has convened experts to evaluate the literature make recommendations on both antenatal post-natal management of CDH. incidence CDH varies from 1.7 5.7 per 10,000 live-born infants depending study population. Antenatal ultrasound scanning is routine increasingly complemented by use magnetic resonance...
Summary Objective To report our experience with a new type of biodegradable airway stent in the setting severe tracheobronchial obstruction children. Design and Methodology We conducted retrospective prospective (since June 2014) study pediatric patients treated stents institution between 2012 2015. The following data were collected: demographics, indication for stenting, bronchoscopic findings, insertion technique complications, clinical outcome, related re‐stenting, time follow‐up. Results...
Objective: Congenital tracheal stenosis (CTS) is a very infrequent malformation.Till recently, the outlook for these patients was dismal because medical management only way of treatment.Surgical and endoscopical techniques developed in last years have improved prognosis.We review short-and long-term outcomes single institution experience children with CTS, comparing different treatment modalities.Methods: Between 1991 2004, 19 cases CTS been managed our Unit.Respiratory symptoms varied from...
Objective: Tracheobronchial obstruction is infrequent in the pediatric age group but it associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The purpose of this study to review results a single institution experience endoscopic stent placement children benign tracheobronchial obstruction, special concern on safety clinical effectiveness. Materials methods: Twenty-one patients severe airway stenosing disease which was performed between 1993 2006. Inclusion criteria according status were:...
Congenital lung malformations are often discovered on routine prenatal sonography or postnatal imaging. Lesions such as congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation pulmonary sequestration may be asymptomatic at birth, and their management is controversial. Thoracoscopy in children has been mainly used for biopsy the treatment of empyema recurrent pneumothorax. Very few reports more technically demanding procedures, lobectomy, currently available. This report evaluates safety efficacy...
This study focuses on the different surgical and endoscopical treatment alternatives when dealing with severe complications after slide tracheoplasty (STP).Retrospective of patients symptomatic congenital tracheal stenosis (CTS) admitted to a single institution, between January 1997 2013, surgically treated by means STP. The following variables were evaluated: demographics, preoperative characteristics, associated anomalies outcome measures.Cohort included 14 (8 males 6 females) mean age 8.7...
Abstract Tracheal bronchus (TRB) has been generally considered an anatomical variant of the tracheobronchial tree without a precise pathological effect. Its prevalence is estimated to be between 0.2% 3% all children undergoing bronchoscopy and scientific information limited case reports or small series. Our working hypothesis was that TRB could trigger by itself recurrent persistent respiratory symptoms. The objective this retrospective multicentre study with diagnosis TRB, coming from main...
To evaluate the biologic impact of polydioxanone (PDO) stenting in an animal model inflammatory tracheal stenosis (TS). Additionally, to compare these results with those obtained same without a stent and after placing one PDO healthy trachea.
Abstract OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the incidence vocal cord paralysis (VCP) in children after cardiovascular surgery. secondary aims were identify factors potentially associated with VCP and diagnostic utility laryngeal ultrasound (US). METHODS This is a retrospective review patients who underwent aortic repair, patent ductus arteriosus ligation left pulmonary artery surgeries from 2007 2017. following data collected: patient demographics, gestational age, weight age at...
Objective Acquired tracheal stenosis (ATS) is an unusual disease often secondary to prolonged mechanical trauma. pathogenesis involves inflammation and subsequent fibrosis with narrowing of the lumen. Transforming growth factor‐β1 (TGF‐β) represents a pivotal factor in most fibrotic processes, therefore potential target this context. The aim study analyze role TGF‐β as for anti‐fibrotic interventions stenosis. Methods Human stenotic tracheobronchial tissues from patients benign airway normal...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential biologic effects caused by successive placement biodegradable polydioxanone (PDO) stents in rabbit trachea. PDO could eventually induce a fibroproliferative reaction submucosa that be beneficial treatment malacia due an increase its consistency without impairing tracheal lumen.Sixteen adult NZ rabbits were distributed into 3 groups with different survival times according number placed: 1 stent (14 weeks), 2 (28 weeks) and (42 weeks). Stent...
