Institutional analysis of intra‐ and post‐operative tracheostomy management for risk reduction

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 370-377, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objectives Determine variability in intra‐ and post‐operative management of tracheostomies (trachs) at our institution as existing literature suggests that trachs are a frequent trigger for airway‐related emergencies. Catalyze the development of an institution‐wide protocols for trach care.

Endotracheal tube intubation with the aid of a laryngeal mask airway, a fiberoptic bronchoscope, and a tube exchanger in a difficult airway patient: a case report [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
A 28-year-old male patient with occipito-atlanto-axial instability underwent a cervical fusion with posterior technique. Post-operatively, the endotracheal tube (ETT) was removed, and the patient was transferred to the intensive care unit. After transfer,

Ventilation challenge in rigid bronchoscopy: Laser tube as an alternative management in patients with lung cancer and central airway obstruction

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 14, Issue 1, Page 24-29, January 2023., 2023
The use of the laser tube allows the monitoring of gas exchange, which controls hypoxemia. Thanks to the double cuff put distally to the tracheal obstruction or in the contralateral bronchus to the obstructed one, the laser tube prevents the flooding of blood from debulking below the stenosis.

Lepidic growth component as a favorable prognostic factor in non–small cell lung cancer of ≤3 cm

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 13, Issue 23, Page 3274-3283, December 2022., 2022
Many non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors present complex histology with various components. The effects of the lepidic growth component (LGC) on the prognosis of NSCLC have not been investigated. Here, we investigated whether an LGC is a relevant prognostic factor for NSCLC.

Factors related to the diagnosis of lung cancer by transbronchial biopsy with endobronchial ultrasonography and a guide sheath

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 13, Issue 24, Page 3459-3466, December 2022., 2022
The present study showed that size of targeted lesion, especially diameter ≥20 mm, the bronchus sign, and detection on EBUS imaging were significant contributors to making the diagnosis of lung cancer by TBB with EBUS‐GS. In addition, the odds ratio (OR) of detection on EBUS imaging for the diagnosis of lung cancer with EBUS‐GS tended to be higher than
