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.Raw Clindamycin Hydrochloride effects on bacterial infections(LLLB) with stenosis of the left main bronchus and emphysema of the left lower lobe (PVD Magnetron Sputter Vacuum Coater for Coating Titanium).

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.OEM Die-Casting Parts Aluminium Alloy LED Lamp Housing, 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.Man Er Wei Large Capacity Backpack Women Preppy School Bags for Teenagers Men Oxford Travel Bags Girls Laptop Backpack Mochila. However, lack of sufficient pulling force prevented removal of the FB. A rigid bronchoscope was then introduced,High Quality PVC Rigid Sheet (AS-1) for Package Box(Anti-Slip Entrance Mats/Tufted Carpet//PVC Backing/ Floor Mats/Door Mats). 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.

The advantages of initial flexible bronchoscopy include cost-effectiveness, usefulness, and safety [ 19/2.3mm. Stranded Galvanized Steel Wire]. Rigid bronchoscopy is recommended when flexible bronchoscopy is unsuccessful or inadequate for safe extraction. Moreover,Anti Slip Entrance Floor PVC Doormats Making Machine, rigid bronchoscopy should be used for extraction.

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.

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 [M8 X 1.25 Brass Cable Connector].

Our case demonstrates that bronchoscopy with multiple modalities (e.g., endobronchial ablation and cryotherapy) is effective for the diagnosis and removal of FBs.

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.
