Abstract
INTRODUCTION Subglottic stenosis, manifested by granulation tissue hyperplasia, is challenging and requires multiple repeated treatments and stent maintenance at times. Corticosteroids prevent severe subglottic stenosis development owing to their antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory properties. Submucosal injection of glucocorticoids, a useful adjuvant therapeutic method, improves the mean interval between endoscopic procedures and reduces airway restenosis risks. CASE PRESENTATION We report a rare case of a man with complex subglottic stenosis who underwent balloon dilatation combined with cryotherapy, stent placement, and adjuvant submucosal triamcinolone injection. The drug was injected efficiently and safely into the submucosal layer under percutaneous ultrasound guidance, and subglottic stenosis was well-controlled at a low cost. CONCLUSION POCUS-guided medication injections may be a useful adjuvant medical therapy for subglottic stenosis.

Assessment of a randomized controlled trial on the safety of pre-placing bronchial balloons in transbronchial lung cryobiopsy for diagnosing interstitial lung disease. Eur J Med Res 2024; 29:268. [PMID: 38702744 PMCID: PMC11067187 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-024-01871-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES Bleeding is a major complication of transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC), and pre-placing a bronchial balloon is one of the clinical practices used to prevent it, but with very weak evidence, which should be confirmed. This study aimed to conduct whether pre-placing a bronchial balloon in TBLC for diagnosing interstitial lung disease (ILD) is more safety. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial, patients with suspected ILD were enrolled and randomly assigned to pre-placed balloon and none-pre-placed balloon groups. The primary outcome was incidence of moderate bleeding in each group. The secondary endpoints were the incidence of severe bleeding, pneumothorax, and other procedural complications. RESULTS Exactly 250 patients were enrolled between August 2019 and March 2022, with 125 in each group. There were no significant differences in severe bleeding between the none-pre-placed balloon group and pre-placed balloon group (1.6% vs. 0.8%; adjusted p = 0.520), while more moderate bleeding occurred in the none-pre-placed balloon group (26.4% vs. 6.4%, adjusted p = 0.001), as well as more use of hemostatic drug (28.0% vs. 6.4%, adjusted p = 0.001). Three patients in the none-pre-placed balloon group used the bronchial balloon. More samples could be acquired in the pre-placed balloon group than in the none-pre-placed balloon group (3.8 ± 0.9 vs. 3.1 ± 0.9, p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in multidisciplinary discussion (MDD) between the two groups (89.6% vs. 91.2%, adjusted p = 0.182). CONCLUSION A pre-placed bronchial balloon can reduce the incidence of moderate bleeding and increase the confidence of the bronchoscopists. However, it had no effect on increasing the diagnostic rate of MDD and reducing severe bleeding. REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04047667 ( www. CLINICALTRIALS gov identifier).

[PMID: 37528335 PMCID: PMC10391876 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-023-02223-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/03/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Analgesia is very important for children with craniosynostosis who are undergoing cranial suture reconstruction. This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of an analgesic technique based on scalp nerve block combined with general anesthesia versus general anesthesia alone. METHODS This was a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled study. A total of 60 children aged 6-24 months who underwent cranial suture reconstruction were randomly divided into two groups: Group A (general anesthesia combined with scalp nerve block) and Group N (general anesthesia). The hemodynamics were recorded preoperatively, at 5 min after incision and at 1, 6 and 12 h after surgery; the pain was scored at 1, 6 and 12 h after surgery, and blood glucose was detected at 1 h after surgery. RESULTS The mean arterial pressure and heart rate at 5 min after incision and 1 h after surgery in Group N were higher than those in Group A; the blood glucose and FLACC score in Group N were higher than those in Group A; and the number of postoperative analgesic pump presses were also significantly increased in Group N. CONCLUSION Preoperative scalp nerve block can reduce hemodynamic fluctuation and postoperative pain in children undergoing cranial suture reconstruction for craniosynostosis. Thus, it can be safely and effectively applied in the anesthesia of these children.
