Traumatic Bilateral Bronchial Injury Requiring Pneumonectomy.
Cureus
December 2024
Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, Good Samaritan University Hospital, West Islip, USA.
High-energy blunt thoracic trauma is a highly morbid condition. When a pneumonectomy is required in such a setting, the mortality rate increases significantly. Here, we present a case of a motor vehicular crash (MVC) in which the patient suffered bilateral bronchial injuries requiring emergent thoracotomy, pneumonectomy, bronchial stenting, and initiation of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO).

Introduction: Segmental anatomical resections have been a subject of debate in recent years. There is increasing evidence that these procedures may offer some advantages in the treatment of early-stage lung cancer, with overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) similar to those seen in lobar anatomical resections.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent segmentectomy at Santa Marta Hospital (HSM) between January 2018 and September 2022.

Background: The intricate anatomical variations in lung structure often perplex thoracic surgeons, and the accurate identification of these variations is closely associated with favorable surgical outcomes.
Case Presentation: A 53-year-old female patient who underwent computed tomography (CT) examination due to chest discomfort, revealing the presence of a partial solid nodule highly suspected of early-stage lung cancer, measuring approximately 2.8 × 2.
Bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm presenting with hemoptysis and hemothorax after pulmonary lobectomy: a case report and literature review.

Department of Thoracic Surgery, The Second Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, Jilin, 130041, PR China.
Background: Bronchial artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare vascular disorder, and cases of bronchial pseudoaneurysms reported after lung surgery are even rarer. The number of reported cases is very limited due to the unclear pathogenesis, lack of diagnostic criteria and treatment guidelines, and nonspecific clinical manifestations.
Case Presentation: The paper reports a case of a patient with primary lung adenocarcinoma who developed hemoptysis, chest and back pain, and right hemothorax after lobectomy.
Postpneumonectomy Syndrome: A Rare Case of Indolent Airway Collapse.
JACC Case Rep
December 2024
Division of Acute Care and Trauma Surgery, Department of Surgery, Kern Medical Center, Bakersfield, California, USA.
Postpneumonectomy syndrome (PPS) is a rare postoperative phenomenon characterized by dynamic airway obstruction and circulatory collapse resulting from excessive mediastinal shifting and rotation of critical structures. This paper presents a novel case of PPS manifesting approximately 3 decades after pneumonectomy in an acutely symptomatic 28-year-old man with clinical findings concerning for impending airway collapse. Cardiac computed tomography and pulmonary function testing were used as alternative, noninvasive means of monitoring for disease advancement.
