Bronchoscopic treatment (BT) has a curative potential for patients with intraluminal microinvasive radiographically occult lung cancer (ROLC). We report the long-term follow-up in a group of 32 patients, ineligible for surgery, in whom ROLC was diagnosed and treated with BT. Tumors were strictly

Department of Pediatrics, Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital No. 777 Xitai Road, Chang'an District, Xi'an 710000, Shaanxi, China.
Objective: This study aimed to identify factors influencing the prognosis of children with severe pneumonia (SP) after fiberoptic bronchoscopic bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL).
Methods: The clinical data of 155 children with SP treated with fiberoptic bronchoscopic BAL at Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital between January 2022 and January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. Children were categorized into the survival group (n = 122) and the death group (n = 33) according to their clinical outcomes within 28 days after treatment.
Contribution of nebulized budesonide before bronchoscopy, a prospective clinical study.

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Tianjin University Chest Hospital, Thoracic Clinical College of Tianjin Medical University, Tianjin Chest Hospital, No. 261 Taier Zhuang Nan Road, Jinnan District, Tianjin 300051, China.
Purpose: This study evaluated the efficacy of adding budesonide to nebulized lidocaine in patients undergoing flexible bronchoscopy (FB) under topical anaesthesia.
Study Design: Patients aged ≥18 years, scheduled for FB under topical anaesthesia were randomized into two groups: the combination group received a pre-treatment of 2 ml 1 mg budesonide with 5 ml 2% lidocaine, whilst the lidocaine group received 5 ml 2% lidocaine with 2 ml saline solution, both administered via nebulization. Blood pressure (BP), heart rate, and percutaneous oxygen saturation were recorded before, during, and 10 min after FB.
Radiation in the Bronchoscopy Suite: One Center's Experience With Navigational Bronchoscopy and a Review of the Literature.

Thoracic Surgery, BASS Medical Group, Walnut Creek, CA.
Background: This study aimed to quantify radiation doses during navigational bronchoscopy procedures, comparing them with reported cohorts and evaluating the LungVision (Body Vision Medical Inc.) system's efficacy in dose reduction.
Methods: This retrospective observational study included 52 consecutive navigational bronchoscopy cases, categorized into 4 imaging groups based on the C-arm: Cios Spin (Siemens Healthineers), or OEC 9900 (GE HealthCare); and the 3D tomographic imaging algorithm: Cios Spin's onboard imaging, or LungVision's AI-driven imaging.
Bronchoscopic lung lavage and exogenous surfactant successfully reverse respiratory failure after severe chlorine exposure: A pediatric case report.
Clin Case Rep
January 2025
Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, Department of Maternal and Child Health and Urological Sciences Sapienza University of Rome Rome Italy.
Key Clinical Message: Although the symptoms of accidental chlorine inhalation are typically mild, severe exposure can result in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We present a case of pediatric ARDS due to chlorine exposure in which lung lavage and exogenous surfactant were successful in avoiding more invasive and costly treatments.
Abstract: Chlorine inhalation as a result of swimming pool chlorination accidents is relatively common.
Introduction Bronchoscopic spray cryotherapy (SCT) is a novel treatment showing promise for chronic bronchitis (CB), characterized by excessive mucus secretion and productive cough. A large animal model for preclinical research of SCT is lacking, and its treatment's efficacy and mechanisms for CB are not well understood. Methods Eight Labradors were exposed to 200 ppm SO2 for 6 months to develop a CB model.
