A 65-year-old obese male, with no other comorbidities, was admitted to our intensive care unit for acute respiratory failure due severe syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. The patient mechanically ventilated (intermittent positive pressure ventilation autoflow mode tidal volume of 6 mL/kg, end expiratory (PEEP) 12 cmH2O, rate 20 breaths/min and fractional inspired oxygen (FiO2) the lowest level maintain arterial pO2 in a range 55–60 mm Hg) 7 days before his condition abruptly...
Abstract: Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a collection of different symptoms and disorders that affect the shoulder upper extremity area, resulting from compression neurovascular structures at superior aperture thorax. The diagnosis TOS, which includes physical examination clinical tests often difficult. Indications for surgical treatment are debated reserved cases involve failure conservative management. most common approaches supraclavicular transaxillary while minimally invasive gaining...
A rare and complex procedure, total lung sparing left secondary carinal resection reconstruction is only performed in a few specialized centers restricted group of patients. We reviewed our experience to evaluate its safety.Patients who underwent with complete parenchymal preservation for low-grade bronchial malignancies at the Shanghai Chest Hospital Padua University were retrospectively reviewed. Clinicopathologic factors perioperative outcomes analyzed.Thirty patients procedure between...
Air leak is the most common complication after lung resection and leads to increased length of hospital (LOH) stay or patient discharge with a chest tube. Management by autologous blood patch pleurodesis (ABPP) controversial because few studies exist, technique has yet be standardized.We retrospectively reviewed patients undergoing ABPP for prolonged air (PAL) following lobectomy in three centers, between January 2014 December 2019. They were divided into two groups: Group A, 120 mL infused;...
Abstract Background Respiratory muscle strength affects pulmonary function after lung resection; however, the role of diaphragm density, an emerging index quality, remains unexplored. We investigated crural density (CDD) in respiratory complications (RC) video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for cancer. Methods A total 118 patients were retrospectively enrolled between 2015 and 2022. Exclusion criteria neoadjuvant therapy, thoracic trauma, previous cardiothoracic abdominal...
Background: The target of our study was to investigate if the size (greater than and less 1 cm) ground-glass opacities (GGOs) adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) minimally invasive (MIA) lung influences rate their evolution.
Eso-SPONGE® has proved to be an excellent method for the treatment of persistent dehiscence intrathoracic esophagogastric anastomosis during operation subtotal esophagectomy sec. Ivor Lewis.The case presented is a 72-year-old patient with esophageal adenocarcinoma (ADK) who underwent sub-total and esophagoplasty Lewis complicated by leak. The therapy been successful halving index inflammation after first two sessions generation neowall seven sessions.Eso-SPONGE® proven valuable resource as...
Smooth muscle tumours of uncertain malignant potential (STUMP) are mesenchymal uterine with a found somewhere between that benign leiomyomas and leiomyosarcomas. Only three cases STUMP pulmonary metastasis exist in the literature.We report case 63 year-old female patient presenting dysphonia secondary to recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis due an enormous mediastinal metastasis, 14 years after having undergone total hysterectomy bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. A successful left...
Achalasia with megaesophagus is a pathology characterized by widespread and irregular dilation of the esophageal lumen. In most cases, this caused contraction subsequent failed relaxation lower sphincter (LES). It may be associated partial or complete slowing peristalsis.We present case 58-year-old woman who developed dysphagia, regurgitation, substantial weight loss (11 kg) over span 1 year. Symptomatic achalasia was diagnosed following chest abdominal computed tomography (CT) contrast...
