Recurrent secondary spontaneous pneumothorax (SSP) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with structural lung damage and underweight status. In this case, doxycycline pleurodesis combined with pulmonary rehabilitation and nutritional support was associated with sustained lung re‐expansion and a 22‐month recurrence‐free outcome ...

Congenital Bronchial Atresia Mimicking Pulmonary Sequestration in the Lower Lobe: A Case Report
Lower‐lobe congenital bronchial atresia may resemble pulmonary sequestration, particularly in the presence of recurrent infection and cavitary changes. Systematic evaluation of bronchial continuity and vascular supply using three‐dimensional CT was useful for accurate diagnosis and surgical decision‐making.

This case demonstrates that medium‐flow ECCO2R can serve as an effective bridge to therapy in AECOPD combined with central airway stricture, safely correcting refractory hypercapnia and providing a stable window for successful bronchoscopic stenting and ventilator weaning. ABSTRACT This case report highlights a novel and successful therapeutic strategy

Individualized Stent for Tracheal Fistula Complicating Tracheostomy Following Esophagectomy
This case illustrates that in complex scenarios where repeated bronchoscopy fails to detect an occult fistula, diagnostic manoeuvres such as temporary tracheostomy tube removal or CT imaging after oral contrast administration can play a critical diagnostic role and demonstrates the feasibility of deploying a customized, fully covered metal stent in a ...
