Introduction And Importance: Synovial sarcomas are aggressive soft tissue malignancies. Damage to the chest wall is uncommon and rarely seen.
Case Presentation: We are reporting an observation of a patient who presented with chest pain and a parietal tumor.
Introduction And Importance: Perioperative anesthetic management in cases of severe airway obstruction with positional symptoms can be associated with difficulties in ventilation or intubation, with a risk of acute respiratory decompensation at every stage of anesthesia.
Case Presentation: Here we describe the anesthetic management of an 18-year-old woman with a mature teratoma who presented with progressive exertional dyspnea that was aggravated in the supine position in the operating room. After tracheal intubation, the tidal volume decreased, airway pressure increased, and pet CO2 grew beyond 105 mmHg without oxygen desaturation, prompting a femoro-femoral cardio-pulmonary bypass.
Background: Fractures of the clavicle are common injuries, which often require reduction and internal fixation. Although Kirschner pins have been commonly used to treat these fractures with good results, migration of these devices may result in severe internal lesions.
Case Presentation: We report herein the case of 61-year-old man, who presented for intrapulmonary migration of a Kirschner pin, 25 years after closed reduction and fixation of a clavicle fracture.
Synovial sarcoma is a soft tissue sarcoma. Its occurrence as a primary mediastinal neoplasm is very rare. We report a case of mediastinal synovial sarcoma in a 14-year-old girl with exertive dyspnoea at presentation.
