Watchful waiting in laryngo‐tracheobronchial amyloid: A case report
We report the long term follow up of a now 66‐year‐old male with laryngo‐tracheobronchial amyloidosis. The patient initially presented with dysphonia and dyspnoea. He was diagnosed with laryngeal reflux and asthma. Seven years later, the patient underwent cross sectional thoracic imaging showing diffuse thickening of the distal trachea and proximal ...

Retrieval of aspirated iatrogenic, sharp foreign body using fiberoptic bronchoscope
Foreign body (FB) aspiration into the tracheobronchial tree is a fairly common occurrence in the pediatric age group. The most common FBs aspirated are organic materials. However, aspiration of iatrogenic FB is rare and infrequently reported.

Key Clinical Message The case underscores the necessity of adaptable airway management strategies in aortic dissection surgeries complicated by carinal shift. Successful lung isolation was achieved using a single‐lumen endotracheal tube after failed attempts with traditional methods and bronchial blockers.

Awake intubation with video laryngoscope and fiberoptic bronchoscope in difficult airway patients.
To the Editor: In a randomized clinical trial, Rosenstock et al.1 showed no significant difference in time to awake intubation by experienced investigators using the McGrath video laryngoscope (MVL) compared with the fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) in ...

Thoracoscopy with the fiberoptic bronchoscope
In this report, we shall describe our use of the flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope in thoracoscopy. This device is superior to the earlier type of thoracoscope because it is not rigid. The high yield of accurate diagnoses, ease of application, and minimal discomfort to the patient make this technique preferable to other nonthoracotomy forms of diagnosis.

A wash-free, dip-type fiber optic plasmonic (DiP) assay for sub-zeptomole analyte detection [PDF]
This study demonstrates a rapid, wash-free dip-type fiber optic plasmonic sandwich (DiP) assay capable of zeptomole analyte detection and 6-orders of wide dynamic range. The DiP assay is realized on a compact U-bent fiber optic probe surface by dipping the antibody functionalized probe into a mixture of sample solution and AuNP labeled reagent.

Damage to the endotracheal tube (ETT) is common in head and neck surgeries, especially in maxillary osteotomy. Airway management in such a crisis is crucial as there is risk of aspiration of blood into lungs, hypoxia and apnoea.

Innovative use of damaged fiberoptic bronchoscope
Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope is a delicate instrument that can get damaged due to improper handling. Once damaged, this costly instrument becomes useless. We reported a case in which we used a damaged flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope in overcoming a difficulty in advancing the endotracheal tube after visualization of the vocal cord with Truview PCD
