In this case of a complex post‐surgical PAL after radical thymectomy, lobectomy and pleurectomy, we describe how sequential bronchoscopic balloon catheter occlusion with the aid of a digital chest drain allowed physiological localization of an air leak predominantly originating from the LB6 lateral subsegment.

Pericardial Decompression for Acute Traumatic Cardiac Tamponade—Pearls and Clamshells
ABSTRACT Acute traumatic cardiac tamponade is a time‐critical—but potentially reversible—cause of circulatory collapse. The surgical, operative, nursing and anaesthesiology staff most capable and best trained to perform the procedure are often not immediately available, requiring emergency medical staff to perform this life‐saving intervention.

3-D reconstruction of anterior mantle-field techniques in Hodgkin's disease survivors: doses to cardiac structures [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The long-term dose-effect relationship for specific cardiac structures in mediastinal radiotherapy has rarely been investigated. As part of an interdisciplinary project, the 3-D dose distribution within the heart was reconstructed in all long-

Among 145 patients with NSCLC receiving definitive thoracic RT, Low V20% (percentage of bilateral lower lobes receiving ≥ 20 Gy) was significantly associated with Grade ≥ 2 radiation pneumonitis. High Low V20% independently predicted Grade ≥ 2 radiation pneumonitis (HR 2.31, 95% CI 1.12–4.74), suggesting added value for pretreatment risk stratification.

Three Cases of Mediastinal Emphysema in Dogs [PDF]
最近遭遇した犬の縦隔気腫の3症例について報告した. 来院時の共通症状は,食欲不振ないし廃絶,呼吸困難(用力性呼吸),チアノーゼなどで, 1例では著しい皮下気腫が認められた.血液所見では,動脈血中の酸素分圧(PO2) の著明な低下が共通して認められた.胸部X線は本疾患の診断に最も有効で,その側面像において,心臓に出入する血管や食道および気管などが,縦隔内の空気貯留のために鮮明に認められた.

ABSTRACT Almost all patients with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) develop respiratory dysfunction of varying severity during disease progression. While respiratory disease in MPS has traditionally been attributed to upper airway obstruction caused by glycosaminoglycan (GAG) accumulation in the trachea and bronchi, involvement of the intrapulmonary ...

Pneumomediastinum, and subcutaneous emphysema usually result from spontaneous alveolar wall rupture and, far less commonly, from disruption of the upper airways or gastrointestinal tract.

Pneumorrhachis with Spontaneous Pneumomediastinum: Should It Raise Special Concerns?
Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is a rare and benign condition predominantly seen in young males. Patients present with non-specific pleuritic chest pain, cough, and dyspnea. Hence, it is difficult to diagnose in the acute setting until other serious
