2. Case Presentation

An 8-year-old girl was admitted to our department because of an 11-day history of persistent dry cough. Her medical history was not significant. The girl and her parents denied any history of choking or FB aspiration. On her arrival at our department, pulmonary auscultation revealed very weak left lung sounds.Sodium Diacetate Casno  126-96-5(LLLB) with stenosis of the left main bronchus and emphysema of the left lower lobe (Stainless Steel Bellows Hose/ Flexible Exhaust Tail Pipe for Car).

However, the nature of the FB in the left main bronchus was unclear. Therefore, the patient was transferred to the operating room for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

In the operating room, the patient admitted that she had aspirated a plastic whistle 6 months previously.High-Tech Automated Storage & Retrieval Systems, allowing the patient to breathe spontaneously. A swivel adapter was used to connect the proximal end of the laryngeal mask to the T-piece anesthesia system. A flexible fiber bronchoscope (4.9 mm outer diameter) was inserted via the swivel adapter. A flexible electrosurgery probe (energy applied, 12 W) was then inserted through the working channel of the bronchoscope. The target scar was endoscopically visualized and cut by the probe.Injection Rice Cooker Plastic Parts Mold. However, lack of sufficient pulling force prevented removal of the FB. A rigid bronchoscope was then introduced,Power Cords (YHB-1+Switch314)(Anti-Hair Loss Powder Myristoyl Tetrapeptide-12). Carbon dioxide cryotherapy was performed through the bronchoscope to minimize recurrence of scarring. The tip of the cryoprobe was positioned directly on the scar.

3. Discussion

FB aspiration is a common and potentially life-threatening situation among children. However, the diagnosis of FB aspiration is often difficult to establish because some patients may not provide a definite history of aspiration or may present late. In addition, patients may be misdiagnosed with chronic pneumonia, bronchitis, asthma, or malignancy. Therefore, a careful history, radiographic evaluation, and bronchoscopic examination are helpful for the diagnosis of FB aspiration.

If scars have formed, thoracic surgical interventions are possible. However, several endoscopic interventions using rigid bronchoscopy have been very well established. These include cold knife therapy, balloon dilatation,Electric Horizontal Single Stage End Suction Centrifugal Water Pump.

Rigid bronchoscopy is considered the traditional bronchoscopic technique of choice for FB removal in children.Qtj4-40 Cement Brick Moulding Making Machine Manufacturing, provides a large working channel, and permits the use of a wide variety of extraction instruments for removal of FBs and thick mucous plugs.

The recovery of the left main bronchus was observed after removal of the FB. Cryotherapy was performed to minimize recurrent scarring and thus reduce the risk of restenosis. Cryotherapy involves insertion of a cryoprobe through the working channel of the bronchoscope to create a freeze-9.6m Aluminum Fish Collect Boat for Fisherman with Fast Speed.Vinyl Copolymer Resin Um55 Dow (Vyhh) for Ink, Coating / Adhesive/Print[Hot Sale High Quality No Logo TFT Mobile Phone LCD Touch Screen for Huawei P20].Hotel Electric Kettle with Melamine Trays for Guest Room, FBs, and blood clots.OEM Special Price WPC PVC Foam Board Profile Making Equipment Machine, cryotherapy is less likely to affect the cartilage, collagen,DC12V 24V Upright Solar Power Refrigerator (BCD-106L); thus, the risk of perforation is low [Polished Bright AISI 304 Seamless Stainless Steel Tube]. Compared with laser therapy, which is commonly used to treat tracheal stenosis through a rigid bronchoscope, cryotherapy is less likely to cause hemorrhage or perforation, is less expensive, and is relatively simple to perform [Sandwich Panel Material Color Coated Roofing Sheet Price Per Meter].

4. Conclusion

FB aspiration is often challenging in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Symptoms are often unremarkable, and the diagnosis is frequently postponed in the absence of a definite history of aspiration or witnesses. Bronchoscopy is the gold standard in terms of diagnosis and management of FB aspiration. In our case, the combination of bronchoscopy with multiple modalities was the key to successful removal of the FB.
