CT Quantification of Central Airway in Tracheobronchomalacia

대한영상의학회지, 2016
Purpose To know which factors help to diagnose tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) using CT quantification of central airway. Materials and Methods From April 2013 to July 2014, 19 patients (68.0 ± 15.0 years; 6 male, 13 female) were diagnosed as TBM on CT.

Tracheobronchoplasty for the treatment of tracheobronchomalacia [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2012
Patients with tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) typically present with dyspnea, recurrent infections, intractable cough, or retained secretions. Airway stabilization may be accomplished with silicone stenting, which provides patients with symptom relief in a minimally invasive manner.

Engineering an artificial trachea: Quantitative benchmarks and modular strategies for mechanics, epithelialization, and vascular integration

FlexMat, EarlyView.
In this work, we first examine the limitations of surgical repair and stenting, including migration, granulation, mucus plugging, and infection. We then translate these failures into engineering constraints involving geometry, mechanics, fixation, degradation, junctional stress, and remodeling.

Beyond Upper Airway Involvement: Evidence of Intrinsic Lung Disease in a Mouse Model of Mucopolysaccharidosis I

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 4, July 2026.
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 ...

Tracheobronchomalacia: An Unreported Pulmonary Complication of Acute Pancreatitis [PDF]

, 2020
Acute Pancreatitis (AP) is a common disease with systemic complications, specifically pulmonary complications that are well-documented [1]. Here we present, to the best of our knowledge, the first reported case of tracheobronchomalacia as a respiratory ...
