Abstract
BACKGROUND Endovascular repair of aortic dissection is an effective method commonly used in the treatment of Stanford type B aortic dissection. Stent placement during the operation was one-time and could not be repeatedly adjusted during the operation. Therefore, it is of great significance for cardiovascular physicians to fully understand the branch status, position, angle, and other information regarding aortic arch dissection before surgery. AIM To provide more references for clinical cardiovascular physicians to develop treatment plans. METHODS Data from 153 patients who underwent endovascular repair of aortic dissection at our hospital between January 2021 and December 2022 were retrospectively collected. All patients underwent multi-slice spiral computed tomography angiography. Based on distinct post-image processing techniques, the patients were categorized into three groups: Multiplanar reconstruction (MPR) (n = 55), volume reconstruction (VR) (n = 46), and maximum intensity projection (MIP) (n = 52). The detection rate of aortic rupture, accuracy of the DeBakey classification, rotation, and tilt angles of the C-arm during the procedure, dispersion after stent release, and the incidence of late complications were recorded and compared. RESULTS The detection rates of interlayer rupture in the MPR and VR groups were significantly higher than that in the MIP group (P < 0.05). The detection rates of DeBakey subtypes I, II, and III in the MPR group were higher than those in the MIP group, and the detection rate of type III in the MPR group was significantly higher than that in the VR group (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the detection rates of types I and II compared to the VR group (P > 0.05). The scatter rate of markers and the incidence of complications in the MPR group were significantly lower than those in the VR and MIP groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The application of MPR in the endovascular repair of aortic dissection has improved the detection rate of dissection rupture, the accuracy of anatomical classification, and safety.

Abstract
Tracheal bronchus is a rare congenital tracheal abnormality that generally refers to the right upper lobe bronchus of the lung that originates from the trachea. Tracheal bronchus is usually asymptomatic and is often accidentally detected by fiberoptic bronchoscopy or computed tomography for other conditions. Depending on the location of the tracheal bronchial opening and possible anatomical variations, the management of 1-lung ventilation in patients with tracheal bronchus is a significant challenge for anesthesiologists. To provide a reference for anesthesiologists to better manage anesthesia in such patients, we review the pathophysiology, definition, and Conacher classification of tracheal bronchus and then discuss the diagnosis of tracheal bronchus and management of 1-lung ventilation during anesthesia according to the Conacher classification.

Abstract
A 34-year-old pregnant woman in the 34th week of gestation with uncontrolled asthma was admitted because of asthma exacerbation. Although she received bronchodilators and systemic corticosteroids, respiratory failure rapidly progressed. Chest computed tomography revealed a mass occluding approximately 80% of the tracheal lumen. After urgent Caesarean section, endobronchial resection was performed. The pathological findings of the resected tumor were compatible with tracheal glomus tumor. Tracheal tumors are often misdiagnosed as asthma, but its complication with asthma is rare. Even if the diagnosis of asthma is definitive, clinicians should consider coexisting diseases, including tracheal tumors, when asthma control is poor.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tracheomalacia is a common congenital condition causing stridor in young children. However, the evaluation of these children remains poorly standardised across institutions. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of all children undergoing an elective laryngotracheobronchoscopy at a single tertiary paediatric institution between March 2010 and December 2018. Emergency bronchoscopies and children with tracheostomies were excluded. 1163 children undergoing an elective bronchoscopy were included in this study, and 545 children also had an airway fluoroscopy. RESULTS The median age at bronchoscopy was 17 months, and the majority of children were male. Tracheomalacia was diagnosed in 21.6% of children at bronchoscopy, of these 48.5% had tracheomalacia diagnosed on a previous airway fluoroscopy. Overall, airway fluoroscopy had a low sensitivity (62.3%) and a low specificity (67.5%) for diagnosis of tracheomalacia when compared with bronchoscopy. Increasing severity of tracheomalacia on airway screen significantly predicted a diagnosis of tracheomalacia on bronchoscopy. CONCLUSIONS Airway fluoroscopy has a low sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of tracheomalacia and should be used judiciously rather than as a screening tool for children with stridor. However, this imaging technique may be beneficial in investigating children with severe symptoms who have had other conditions such as laryngomalacia excluded.

Abstract
Noxious particulate matter in the air is a primary cause of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The bronchial tree acts to filter these materials in the air and preserve the integrity of the bronchi. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that smoking and air pollutants are the most prominent risk factors of COPD. Bifurcations in the airway may act as deposition sites for the retention of inhaled particles, however, little is known concerning the impacts of abnormalities of the bronchial anatomy in the pathogenesis of COPD. Studies have reported significant associations between bronchial variations and the symptoms in COPD. In particular, it has been shown that bronchial variations in the central airway tree may contribute to the development of COPD. In this review, we identified three common types of bronchial variation that were used to formulate a unifying hypothesis to explain how bronchial variations contribute to the development of COPD. We also investigated the current evidence for the involvement of specific genes including fibroblast growth factor 10 (Fgf10) and bone morphogenetic protein 4 (Bmp4) in the formation of bronchial variation. Finally, we highlight novel assessment strategies and opportunities for future research of bronchial variations and genetic susceptibility in COPD and comorbidities. Our data strongly highlight the role of bronchial variations in the development, complications, and acute exacerbation of COPD.
