Background: Bronchoscopic lung cryobiopsy (BLC) is a novel technique for obtaining tissue the diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal diseases. The procedure performed using several different variations technique, resulting in an inconsistent diagnostic yield and variable risk complications. There unmet need standardization technical aspects BLC. Methodology: This position statement framed by group comprising experts from fields pulmonary medicine, thoracic surgery, pathology, radiology under aegis...
Context: Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) remains a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to physicians.There are various non-invasive modalities been suggested diagnose embolism.Aim: We tried find the performance of investigations in comparison multidetector Computerized Tomography (MDCT angiography for diagnosis PE).Settings design: A prospective cohort study was conducted 80 hospitalized medical patients.Materials methods: There were patients with Wells score > 2 who included.The demographic...
Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a decisive risk factor for severe illness in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). India home to large number of people with DM, and many them were infected COVID-19. It critical understand the impact DM on mortality other clinical outcomes COVID-19 infection from this region. Aims The primary objective our study was analyze rate secondary objectives assess effect various comorbidities outcomes. Methods This retrospective patients admitted tertiary care...
The tracheobronchial origin of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is a very rare presentation, and there are only few case reports primary tracheal or endobronchial NHL. We have two cases NHL; one was incidentally diagnosed as anaplastic large cell when comprehensive workup surgery were carried out for an aspergilloma which actually sitting on top lymphoma. second patient myelodysplastic syndrome who presented with acute respiratory distress; thorough workup, he found to endotracheal B-cell Both...
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis represents a rare syndrome characterized by the accumulation of proteinaceous phospholipid-laden material in alveoli. This leads to impaired gas exchange and arterial hypoxemia varying degrees. The diagnosis is confirmed lung biopsy. Sequential whole-lung lavage (WLL) first described 1963 standard care. We report case male diagnosed having pulmonary (PAP) on transbroncial biopsy (TBLB). He was treated with sequential WLL (Left followed right, Left being more...
Sir, Pulmonary strongyloidiasis is caused by the nematode Strongyloides stercoralis, which prevalent in tropical and subtropical countries.[1] During migration through lungs, larvae can lead to various pulmonary manifestations. The accelerated autoinfection patients with altered immune status leads hyperinfection a lethal entity.[2] Our case was renal allograft recipient who presented mild chest symptoms that worsened subsequent days. imaging showed diffuse shadows; diagnostic...
Data comparing the clinical spectrum of COVID-19 in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) during first and second waves pandemic India is limited. Our single-center retrospective study compared profile, mortality, associated risk factors KTRs with 1st wave (1st February 2020 to 31st January 2021) March-31st August 2021). 156 PCR confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection treated at a tertiary care hospital New Delhi were analyzed. The demographics baseline characteristics patients diagnosed both...
Bronchial varices, characterized by dilated and tortuous vessels within the bronchial tree, are a rare entity often presenting as massive or recurrent haemoptysis. Multiple aetiologies have been described in literature including congenital acquired pulmonary vein stenosis secondary to surgical radiofrequency ablation other cardiac interventions. We present case of 60-year-old female with history systemic hypertension, hypothyroidism sick sinus syndrome, who presented intermittent episodes...
Since the last few years a new strain of influenza virus H1N1 has infected people all age groups and caused significant morbidity mortality. Pregnant females are at special risk especially during second third trimester. We present anesthetic management case cesarean section parturient 32 weeks with confirmed who had developed acute respiratory distress syndrome discuss various issues concerning perioperative management.
Mediastinal lymphadenopathy due to various infective agents such as Mycobacterium and fungus, sarcoidosis, lymphoma, metastasis is often seen. Ordinary bacteria have rarely been reported cause necrotizing, usually suppurative granulomatous reactions. We report a case of mediastinal Pseudomonas infection, in patient chronic kidney disease on maintenance hemodialysis, who presented with fever, breathlessness, low blood pressure.
Autopneumonectomy simply describes the autolysis or almost complete destruction of lung tissue without any surgical removal lung. This is not a common occurrence but sometimes observed in areas where tuberculosis (TB) endemic. The patients are usually diagnosed when they come to hospital either with complications related autopneumonectomy postpneumonectomy-like syndrome. Rarely, these remain asymptomatic until late age. Our case was an elderly female abnormal chest X-ray, who referred us for...
Antifungal agents are being clinically misused, especially in intensive care units (ICUs). The objective of this review is to explore the reasons and formulate strategy for their use. Various cited misuse were generally increasing incidence resistant fungi as well also risk factors critically-ill patients like indwelling lines catheters, broad-spectrum antibiotic cover, hemodialysis, total parenteral nutrition, steroids, mechanical ventilation. Newer antifungal recently available...
The chylothorax is not a common presentation, and bilateral in patients with chronically high central venous pressure secondary to thrombosis rare incidence. We reported case of patient chronic deep vein (DVT) veins thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension who presented 2 weeks history increased breathlessness, chest discomfort weakness. Work-up X-ray ultrasonography-chest showed gross left sided mild right pleural effusion, thoracocentesis was consistent chylothorax. Contrast enhanced computed...
Hydatid disease is a parasitic infection caused by tapeworm of the genus Echinococcus. Our case 36-year-old female patient from Afghanistan who presented with paroxysmal cough since 2 years and breathlessness weight loss 1 month. The underwent routine hematological investigations, chest X-ray, bronchoscopy. After taking sample, was asked to follow-up in outpatient department but she came into emergency after 10 days increased symptoms. given supportive treatment on thorough diagnosed have...
The absence of one the pulmonary artery with associated hypoplasia lung and great vessel abnormality is a rare finding. incidence this congenital around 1 in 200,000 live birth. left side again uncommon, cardiac malformations are usually tetralogy fallot or septal defects rather than an aortic arch defect. Our case unique It’s anomalies. He was presented recurrent pneumothorax hemoptysis, on thorough workup, he diagnosed to have right-sided arch. patient’s family has declined surgical...
