Effect of variations in atelectasis on tumor displacement during radiation therapy for locally advanced lung cancer [PDF]
Purpose Atelectasis (AT), or collapsed lung, is frequently associated with central lung tumors. We investigated the variation of atelectasis volumes during radiation therapy and analyzed the effect of AT volume changes on the reproducibility of the ...

Left Bronchial Isomerism with Right-Sided Tracheal Bronchus: A Rare Case Report
The tracheal bronchus is a congenital bronchial branching anomaly defined as an aberrant bronchus arising in either the trachea or a main bronchus. Left bronchial isomerism is characterized by two bilobed lungs, bilateral long main bronchi, and both ...

Transection of a Coopdech bronchial blocker tip during bronchial resection for right upper lobectomy: a case report [PDF]
A bronchial blocker (BB) is preferred for lung separation in patients with difficult airways. However, BBs, unlike double-lumen tubes, must be placed in the bronchus of the lung being operated on, hence can be damaged by surgical manipulation. Intubation
