Right middle lobe atelectasis in children with asthma and prognostic factors [PDF]

Allergology International, 2016
Background: Although right middle lobe (RML)-atelectasis of the lungs is a common complication of asthma, the relevant data is limited. The aim of this study is to define the characteristics of RML atelectasis in asthma during childhood.

Is atelectasis related to the development of postoperative pneumonia? a retrospective single center study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2023
Background Atelectasis may play a substantial role in the development of pneumonia. However, pneumonia has never been evaluated as an outcome of atelectasis in surgical patients.

High-dose-rate endobronchial brachytherapy in the management of advanced lung cancer - comparison according to the presence of lung atelectasis [PDF]

Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2021
Introduction/Objective. Locally advanced lung cancer is often accompanied by atelectasis of either a part or the entire lung. The aim of this study was to establish the benefits of brachytherapy on the patients’ quality of life, the length of the ...

Correlation of lung collapse and gas exchange - a computer tomographic study in sheep and pigs with atelectasis in otherwise normal lungs. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Atelectasis can provoke pulmonary and non-pulmonary complications after general anaesthesia. Unfortunately, there is no instrument to estimate atelectasis and prompt changes of mechanical ventilation during general anaesthesia.

Case Report: Neonatal Massive Pneumothorax Resulting in Compression Atelectasis Treated by Ultrasound-Guided Pleural Puncture Therapy: A Typical Case Based on Lung Ultrasound Finding

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021
Atelectasis is a complication of different pulmonary diseases; however, neonatal compression atelectasis due to pneumothorax is rarely reported in the literature. Recently, we encountered a typical case of atelectasis.

Proteomics of lung tissue reveals differences in inflammation and alveolar-capillary barrier response between atelectasis and aerated regions

Scientific Reports, 2022
Atelectasis is a frequent clinical condition, yet knowledge is limited and controversial on its biological contribution towards lung injury. We assessed the regional proteomics of atelectatic versus normally-aerated lung tissue to test the hypothesis ...

Evaluation of the Effect of Pressure-Controlled Ventilation-Volume Guaranteed Mode vs. Volume-Controlled Ventilation Mode on Atelectasis in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Medicina, 2023
Background and Objectives: Laparoscopic surgery, which results in less bleeding, less postoperative pain, and better cosmetic results, may affect the lung dynamics via the pneumoperitoneum. After laparoscopic surgery, atelectasis develops.
