Background: Catamenial pneumothorax (CP) is a rare form of spontaneous that linked to endometriosis; thus, it predominantly manifests in women reproductive age.Considerable research has explored the potential benefits postoperative hormone therapy following various surgical interventions.This study was performed examine clinical implications treatment patients with CP.Methods: The included who underwent intervention for CP between November 2009 and February 2023.These procedures wedge...
The benefits of dissecting inferior pulmonary ligament (IPL) during upper lobectomy using video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) for early-stage lung cancer remains controversial. This study evaluates the effect IPL dissection by comparing volume, bronchial angle, and tortuosity left lower lobe (LLL) VATS lobectomy. Medical records all patients who underwent were evaluated. Patients divided into group P (preservation) D (dissection). Pre- post-surgery volumes, angles (angle 1: axial...
Objectives: Pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum are associated with high mortality in invasively ventilated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients; however, the rates among non-intubated patients remain unknown. We aimed to analyze clinical features of COVID-19-associated pneumothorax/pneumomediastinum identify risk factors for mortality. Methods: searched PubMed Scopus Embase from January 2020 December 2021. performed a pooled analysis 151 no invasive mechanical ventilation history 17...
Abstract Background For patients with left upper lobe lesions, the functional benefit of division segmentectomy over lobectomy remains controversial. This study evaluated clinical and outcomes after these two procedures. Methods retrospective included 135 lesions (left lobectomy, 110; segmentectomy, 25). Propensity score matching was used to compare groups. Spirometry computed tomography volume assessments were performed evaluate bronchus angle tortuosity. Short-term respiratory symptoms...
Objectives: Although surgical intervention for spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) reduces the recurrence rate, thoracoscopic surgery is associated with greater postoperative rates than open thoracotomy. A polyglycolic acid (PGA) sheet or oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) mesh can therefore be used additional coverage after surgery, and this study compared clinical impacts of these two materials. Methods: From 2018 to 2020, 262 surgeries primary SP were performed, which 125 patients enrolled in...
Minimally invasive cryoablation is often considered for lung tumor patients with high surgical risk or inoperable metastatic tumors.Cryoablation a type of thermal percutaneous ablation in which argon and helium gases are delivered via cryoprobe to induce tissue freezing necrosis.We report the case 23-year-old woman who had suffered from multiple pulmonary endometriosis frequent intermittent hemoptysis during menstruation 6 years prior her visit.She was treated at our hospital, since...
Background: Chest computed tomography (CT) findings are important for identifying Birt–Hogg–Dube (BHD) syndrome. However, the predictive power of classical criteria chest CT is weak. Here, we aimed to identify more specific necessitating genetic examination FLCN gene mutations. Methods: From June 2016 December 2017, prospectively enrolled 21 patients with multiple bilateral and basally located lung cysts on no other apparent cause, including cases without spontaneous primary pneumothorax....
Birt–Hogg–Dube (BHD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by multiple lung cysts, typical skin manifestations, and renal tumors. We prospectively enrolled thirty-one subjects from four South Korean institutions with next-generation sequencing was conducted. cysts. Next-generation performed to investigate mutations in the following genes: FLCN, TSC1, TSC2, CFTR, EFEMP2, ELN, FBLN5, LTBP4, SERPINA1. BHD diagnosed 11 of 31 (35.5%; FLCN mutations). Notably, we identified three novel...
Background: Radiographic modalities have been commonly used to evaluate pectus carinatum (PC), and compressive orthotic bracing is the most widely accepted treatment method.The aim of this study was determine efficacy 3-dimensional (3D) body surface scanning as an alternative modality for evaluation PC.Methods: The medical records 63 patients with PC who were treated therapy between July 2017 February 2019 retrospectively analyzed.Using both 2-view chest radiography (posteroanterior lateral...
Primary spontaneous pneumothorax is commonly treated with chest tube insertion, which requires hospitalization. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy, costs, and benefits of a portable small-bore (Thoracic Egg; Sumitomo Bakelite Co. Ltd., Tokyo, Japan) compared conventional tube.We retrospectively analyzed all primary patients who underwent treatment at Gangnam Severance Hospital between August 2014 May 2018.A total 279 were divided into 2 groups: group (n=236) Thoracic Egg (n=43). Of 236...

Abstract Background Segmentectomy for early‐stage lung cancer has benefits survival and parenchymal preservation. However, segmentectomies are technically challenging, thereby resulting in considerable variability the quality of resection. In this study, we aimed to review analyze their clinical impact. Methods This retrospective study reviewed patients diagnosed with stage I after between 2013 2021. Segmentectomies were classified as anatomical or nonanatomical; resection included segmental...
To date, there is no consensual definition of what constitutes a postoperative recurrence primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP), despite being many studies reporting high incidence recurrence. This study aims to describe the long-term rates and suggest possible way differentiate events based on temporal patterns. single-center retrospectively evaluated all PSP from January 2007 May 2019. Patients' demographics, history pneumothorax, radiologic data, surgical technique, time between...
Since the onset of COVID-19 pandemic, there have been many reported cases showing consequences-or collateral damages-of on patients with non-COVID-related diseases. This study aimed to compare clinical manifestations and treatment results pneumothorax before during pandemic. We retrospectively reviewed who visited our hospital pandemic The primary outcome was difference in amount between two periods, secondary them. Multivariable logistic regression conducted find risk factors related...
Background: We aimed to investigate the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on degree depression among hyperhidrosis patients and their quality life. Methods: 222 were contacted through an online questionnaire. Patients reported life (QoL), including treatment changes in symptoms during pandemic, also responded Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) evaluate severity depression. Those compared with result from general population. Spearman correlation multiple linear regression performed identify...
Cerebral air embolism combined with cardiomyopathy secondary to pulmonary barotrauma is rare. Here, we report an unusual case of cerebral transient large bulla rupture during a function test after lung cancer surgery. The patient experienced loss consciousness. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging suggested embolism. Electrocardiography showed ST-segment elevation abnormally high plasma levels cardiac enzymes. Echocardiography coronary angiography cardiomyopathy. was discharged...
A recent increase in the incidental detection of ground glass nodules (GGNs) has created a need for improved diagnostic accuracy screening malignancies. However, surgical diagnosis remains challenging, especially via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Herein, we present efficacy novel electrical navigation system perioperative percutaneous transthoracic nodule localization.Eighteen patients with GGNs who underwent electromagnetic navigated needle localization (ETTNL), followed by...
