Lung preservation in a case of complex rupture of right main bronchus and segmental bronchi injury with lung laceration.

Repairing complex bronchial injury is challenging. We present a case of successful bronchial repair with preservation of the entire lung in a complex bronchial injury. An 18-year-old male presented with pneumothorax and minimal dyspnea following blunt chest trauma and was managed with intercostal drainage and resuscitation.

Bronchial carcinoid: a neuroendocrine manifestation-presented as bronchospasm and hypertension during resection.

Bronchopulmonary carcinoid tumors are rare, slow-growing malignant neuroendocrine tumors. Early diagnosis is pivotal as surgical resection is the main stay of treatment. A 40-year-old female with typical bronchial carcinoid presented with complaints of breathlessness on mild to moderate exertion, intermittent productive cough, low-grade fever, and loss of appetite since 1 year.

Analysis of outcome of end-to-end and end-to-side internal iliac artery anastomosis in renal transplantation: Our initial experience with a case series.

Introduction: In renal transplantation, there is end-to-side anastomosis of renal artery to external iliac artery and end-to-end anastomosis of renal artery to internal iliac artery. The end-to-end internal iliac artery anastomosis can be associated with complications due to compromised distal vascular supply to limbs and penile erectile tissue. A method of end-to-side anastomosis can overcome them.

Effect of magnesium infusion on thoracic epidural analgesia.

Introduction: Patients of lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS) having an ASA status III or more are likely to be further downgraded by surgery to critical levels of pulmonary function.

Aim: To compare the efficacy of thoracic epidural block with (0.125%) bupivacaine, fentanyl combination and (0.
