Use of a 3D‐printed custom‐designed tracheostomy tube to stabilise a permanent tracheostoma in a 25‐year‐old Icelandic mare

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 7, Page e399-e405, July 2026.
Summary A 25‐year‐old Icelandic mare diagnosed with bilateral temporohyoid‐osteoarthropathy, moderate pharyngeal instability and bilateral laryngeal paralysis was presented because of intermittent stridor and dyspnoea worsening during exercise. As a previous ceratohyoidectomy had not improved these symptoms substantially, a permanent tracheostomy was ...

Quantitative severity of pulmonary emphysema as a prognostic factor for recurrence in patients with surgically resected non‐small cell lung cancer

Thoracic Cancer, 2019
Background Pulmonary emphysema is a major component of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancer. However the prognostic significance of quantitative emphysema severity in patients with lung cancer is unclear.

Air embolism secondary to suspected lymphatic tissue disruption with severe exercise‐induced pulmonary haemorrhage

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Air embolism is rare in horses and typically associated with complications following intravenous catheterisation or other medical procedures. Exercise‐induced pulmonary haemorrhage (EIPH) is common in racehorses but not usually associated with air embolism. This report describes a case of air embolism in a 4‐year‐old Thoroughbred with EIPH. The

Hamman's crunch—A pathognomonic sign of pneumomediastinum

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Pneumomediastinum, particularly spontaneous pneumomediastinum, is uncommon and presents a diagnostic challenge. In human medicine, auscultation of Hamman's crunch, a crepitant, crunching noise, audible over the cardiac region in synchrony with the heartbeat, is considered pathognomonic for pneumomediastinum.

Pulmonary Emphysema Subtypes on Computed Tomography in Smokers

American Journal of Medicine, 2013
Background Pulmonary emphysema is divided into three major subtypes at autopsy: centrilobular, paraseptal and panlobular emphysema. These subtypes can be defined by visual assessment on computed tomography (CT); however, clinical characteristics of ...
