Comparison of efficacy and safety of different suction pressure for speeding non-ventilated lung collapse in uniport video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: a randomized-controlled trial [PDF]
Background The bronchial suction has been applied in speeding lung collapse. Low suction pressure may not speed lung collapse, but high pressure causes occult lung injury.

Effects of Different Concentrations of Inhaled Oxygen on Lung Collapse and Oxidative Stress in Patients With One Lung Ventilation, a Single‐Center Prospective, Double‐Blinded, Randomized Controlled Trial [PDF]
Background During thoracoscopic surgery, the anestheologist assure an adequate oxygen supply to the body, but at the same time, to improve the surgical field by completely collapsing the lung on the surgical side.

Comparison of the effect of double-lumen endotracheal tubes and bronchial blockers on lung collapse in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Objective This meta-analysis compared the quality of lung collapse and the resultant adverse reactions between the use of double-lumen endotracheal tubes (DLT) and bronchial blockers (BB) in minimally invasive thoracic surgery.

A retrospective cross-sectional study of therapeutic results of single port thoracoscopy in patients with lung collapse due to trauma: comparison of entirely recovered and re-thoracoscopy needed patients [PDF]
Introduction Lung collapse can occur for various reasons, especially trauma. Single-port thoracoscopy is a treatment method that has not been discussed in detail.

Comparative outcomes of inpatients with lung collapse managed by bronchoscopic or conservative means [PDF]
Background Although the incidence and prevalence of atelectatic lung collapse is unknown, such events are common among inpatients, and there are no guidelines for optimally instituting bronchoscopic techniques.

Optimizing Lung Collapse During One-Lung Ventilation: Physiological Mechanisms and Clinical Strategies: A Narrative Review. [PDF]
Effective thoracic surgery requires timely, predictable operative lung collapse. During one-lung ventilation (OLV), lung collapse is not merely a mechanical consequence of nonventilated lumen opening but a phase-dependent physiological process.

Death Due to Migration of a Wooden Skewer Foreign Body from the Gastrointestinal Tract to the Lung in a Dog [PDF]
Sharp wooden skewers can easily migrate from the gastrointestinal tract after ingestion and penetrate to abdominal and chest organs. Clinical signs can vary depending on the location of the foreign body.
