Shape-Sensing Robotic-Assisted Bronchoscopic Microwave Ablation for Primary and Metastatic Pulmonary Nodules: Retrospective Case Series

Diagnostics
Background: Bronchoscopic thermal ablation has emerged as a minimally invasive therapeutic option for managing pulmonary nodules in patients unsuitable for surgery or radiotherapy. Robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RAB) offers enhanced stability and precise

Bronchoscopy Robot with Enhanced Flexibility and Stability via Multi‐Segment Variable Stiffness Catheter

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents a magnetic bronchoscopy robot with a novel multi‐segment variable stiffness catheter. This catheter can not only move flexibly in the narrow bronchi but also harden according to the need to provide support. Combined with remote wireless magnetic field drive, it provides a more precise and effective solution for biopsy of deep lung ...

CT Virtual Bronchoscopy, Multi-Detector CT Chest versus Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy in detecting Lung Collapse [PDF]

Minia Journal of Medical Research
Background: Fiber-optic bronchoscopy (FOB) is the gold standard for diagnosing tracheobronchial lesions, but has limitations including invasiveness and restricted access to certain airways.

ESOPHAGOSCOPY AND BRONCHOSCOPY. [PDF]

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1904
Esophagoscopy has been practiced so long and is so familiar to some general surgeons as well as to laryngologists, that its history would not be of great interest. However, its great value in some cases calls for at least a word, and I wish to present the history of one very interesting case in which it enabled me to make a successful operation where ...

Tuberculosis in Malta : a case for sputum induction [PDF]

, 2013
Sputum induction is a procedure used to help patients expectorate samples of sputum for laboratory analysis. It is a simple, safe and standardised procedure which may avoid the use of more invasive and potentially harmful interventions such as fibreoptic

Posthumously Diagnosed Myhre Syndrome Presenting With Pleural Remodeling and Endometrial Cancer

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Myhre syndrome (OMIM 139210) is a genetic condition defined by neurodevelopmental disability, characteristic facial features, and multisystem proliferative fibrosis. While various types of lung disease have been reported, pleural remodeling leading to restrictive lung disease has not yet been described.

Comparison of In‐Office and General Anesthesia Biopsies for Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma in a Public Healthcare System

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We compared treatment delays, costs, and management impact between oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) patients undergoing in‐office versus general anesthesia panendoscopy‐guided biopsies in two large tertiary centers in a public healthcare system. Methods All OPSCC patients included were treated between 2010 and 2024 with

Microbiome Analysis Using Bronchoscopy for Diagnosis and Prognosis of Lung Disease: A Systematic Review [PDF]

With their ability to produce antibiotics, influence drug transport, and serve as vehicles or adjuvants for drug delivery, microbial signatures may provide new information on the pathophysiology of different lung illnesses.

MEK Inhibitor Associated Airway Injury in an Infant With Noonan Syndrome: A Case Report

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
An infant with Noonan syndrome treated with trametinib developed extensive mucosal sloughing of the upper and lower airway, followed by severe supraglottic scarring. Clinicians should consider airway toxicity as a potential adverse effect of MEK inhibitor therapy.
