Thoracoscopic aortopexy for symptomatic tracheobronchomalacia [PDF]
Symptomatic tracheobronchomalacia can be fatal. Successful treatment includes aortopexy. We report outcomes of the thoracoscopic approach in a single centre.All patients undergoing thoracoscopic aortopexies from 2009 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Data was reported as median (interquartile range).

Indications and Utility of Posterior Tracheopexy in the Pediatric Population: An Overview of Its Expanding Role in Tracheobronchial Disease [PDF]
Background: Tracheobronchial disease, including tracheomalacia (TM) and tracheobronchomalacia (TBM), is a spectrum of congenital and acquired airway disorders characterized by the collapse of the tracheal or mainstem bronchial walls during expiration ...

A Case of Relapsing Polychondritis With Severe Obstructive Ventilatory Defect Caused by a Single Flare‐Up [PDF]
Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare progressive autoimmune disorder affecting cartilaginous and/or proteoglycan‐rich structures. Tracheobronchial involvement is observed in almost half of RP cases and significantly impacts the prognosis. We present a

Case Report: Tracheobronchomalacia after a two-stage surgical approach to treat congenital diaphragmatic hernia with hepatopulmonary fusion [PDF]
Hepatopulmonary fusion (HPF) is a rare comorbidity of right-sided congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). The mortality rate of CDH with HPF is high, and the optimal approach and timing for surgical intervention remain unclear.

The use of overlapping self‐expandable covered stents in the management of long‐segment tracheobronchomalacia: A case report [PDF]
Tracheomalacia is a condition where the tracheal wall is abnormally soft and prone to collapse during increased respiratory efforts. Airway malacia can manifest as segmental conditions like laryngomalacia, tracheomalacia and bronchomalacia, or as diffuse

Tracheobronchoplasty for tracheobronchomalacia [PDF]
Tracheobronchoplasty (TBP) consists of splinting of the posterior membranous wall of the central airways with the goal of restoring a normal configuration and preventing excessive collapse in patients with tracheobronchomalacia (TBM). Despite some variation in technique, it consists of sewing a mesh on the posterior membranous wall of the trachea and ...

The feasibility of using electrical impedance tomography to guide positive pressure airway clearance in children with cystic fibrosis and tracheobronchomalacia [PDF]
# Aim Positive expiratory pressure devices are frequently used for airway clearance in children with cystic fibrosis and tracheobronchomalacia. This study aimed to establish if electrical impedance tomography is a feasible measure to titrate pressures in
