Ultrastructural Description of Amphid Neurons in the Pine Wood Nematode Indicates Concurrent Evolution of the Stylet and Specific Neurons. [PDF]

J Comp Neurol
Nematodes possess simple nervous systems yet show broad ecological diversity. In the fungal‐feeding plant‐parasitic nematode Bursaphelenchus xylophilus, we identified type V neurons in the amphid. These neurons, likely associated with the stylet, have trifurcated cilia and may have a potential mechanosensory role in triggering stylet‐thrusting behavior

Soft-Tip Stylet and Saline Instillation Technique: Making Difficult Percutaneous CT-Guided Biopsies Possible

Indian Journal of Radiology and Imaging, 2021
Finding a safe needle path during percutaneous computed tomography-guided biopsy is sometimes difficult due to concern for injuring a vital structure. Saline instillation technique has been used to displace the structure out of the way.

Formation of Stylet Sheaths in āere (in air) from eight species of phytophagous hemipterans from six families (Suborders: Auchenorrhyncha and Sternorrhyncha). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Stylet sheath formation is a common feature among phytophagous hemipterans. These sheaths are considered essential to promote a successful feeding event.

Is endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration with a stylet necessary for lymph node screening in lung cancer patients?

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2017
During endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA), a needle is commonly used with a stylet, although recently the stylet has been omitted. This prospective study aimed to compare the quality of specimens obtained by EBUS-

A Near Miss: Case Report and Literature Review

American Journal of Perinatology Reports, 2012
We report a 28-week gestation premature infant with rare complication of endotracheal intubation. A piece from the plastic sheath of the stylet was retrieved inside the endotracheal tube after extubation.

A piece of broken intubation tube stylet as endobronchial foreign body

The Egyptian Journal of Bronchology, 2020
Endotracheal tube stylets are still being used in many medical centres for difficult intubations. In rare cases, it may break inside the trachea during endotracheal intubation and may sometimes move unnoticed deep into the tracheobronchial tree.
