Perioperative Adverse Events in Primary Palatoplasty: “Risk Factors and Impact on Care Escalation in a Multicenter Cohort”

Pediatric Anesthesia, Volume 36, Issue 10, Page 1247-1253, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Patients undergoing palatoplasty experience perioperative adverse events. Identifying risk factors for perioperative adverse events and escalation of care may improve outcomes. Methods Pediatric patients undergoing primary palatoplasty were included in this retrospective observational study performed at two academic children's ...

Management of Massive Post‐Tracheostomy Subcutaneous Emphysema With an Adjustable‐Length, Wire‐Reinforced Tracheostomy Tube: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Massive subcutaneous emphysema with pneumomediastinum is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication following tracheostomy, for which standardized management strategies are lacking. We report the case of a 67‐year‐old man who developed progressive cervicofacial and thoracic subcutaneous emphysema on postoperative Day 9 after an ...

The Management of Cyanotic Spells in Children with Oesophageal Atresia

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2017
Cyanotic spells, also known as blue spells, dying spells, or apparent life-threatening events, refer to a bluish tone visible in the mucosal membranes and skin caused by an oxygen decrease in the peripheral circulation.

Patient‐Specific Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling of Airway Collapse in Infants With Robin Sequence

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 9, September 2026.
This study presents a novel method to analyze the airflow dynamics across the full respiratory cycle in Robin Sequence infants with upper airway obstruction or collapse. It uses 4DCT‐derived airway anatomy and wall movement combined with Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations.

Interventions for primary (intrinsic) tracheomalacia in children (Review)

, 2005
Background Tracheomalacia, a disorder of the large airways where the trachea is deformed or malformed during respiration is commonly seen in tertiary paediatric practice. It is associated with a wide spectrum of respiratory symptoms from life threatening

Computational Fluid Dynamics as an Adjunctive Functional Assessment of Airway Narrowing After Pulmonary Artery Banding: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
An infant developed respiratory instability after pulmonary artery banding despite only mild‐to‐moderate tracheobronchial narrowing on computed tomography and bronchoscopy. Patient‐specific computational fluid dynamics revealed markedly elevated airway resistance (15 Pa/mL/s) and severe airflow asymmetry, with only 0.04% of the simulated inspiratory ...

Pits and pearls in the management of giant goiters

Journal of Head & Neck Physicians and Surgeons, 2018
Objective: Giant goiters invariably have been neglected by the patients allowing them to grow to huge sizes. Usually, these are slow growing and are not troublesome, and hence, the patients ignore them. The treatment of such goiters is surgery.

Pediatric Esophageal Biomechanics and Remodeling: Integrating Distensibility and Compliance Beyond Luminal Diameter

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Volume 41, Issue 9, Page 2613-2622, September 2026.
Esophageal distensibility and compliance provide physiologic information beyond luminal diameter alone in pediatric esophageal disease. This review proposes a practical biomechanics‐informed framework integrating FLIP assessment into interpretation of dysphagia, esophageal remodeling, dilation response, and therapeutic decision‐making in children ...

3D Electrical Impedance Tomography of Regional Ventilation During Jet Ventilation: A Pilot Study

Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology, Volume 11, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Low‐frequency jet ventilation (LFJV) is commonly used in laryngotracheal surgery when intubation is not feasible. However, limited understanding of regional ventilation and distal airway pressures raises safety concerns and restricts broader adoption.
