Comparison between community-acquired pneumonia and post-obstructive pneumonia associated with endobronchial tumors.
BMC Pulm Med
November 2024
Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Affiliated Yueqing Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, Wenzhou, 325600, Zhejiang, China.
Background: Endobronchial tumors can infiltrate the bronchial wall or protrude into the bronchial lumen, causing post-obstructive pneumonia (POP). Differentiating between POP and community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is challenging due to similar clinical, laboratory, and imaging findings, which can delay the diagnosis and treatment of endobronchial tumors.
Methods: We compared general demographic information, laboratory test results, lung CT images, bronchoscopic observations, pathological findings between the POP group and the CAP group.
Assessing Bronchiectasis Progression in Low-dose Screening for Lung Cancer: Frequency and Predictors.
J Thorac Imaging

Department of Diagnostic, Molecular, and Interventional Radiology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY.
Purpose: Bronchiectasis is associated with loss of lung function, substantial use of health care resources, and increased morbidity and mortality in people with cardiopulmonary diseases. We assessed the frequency of progression or new development of bronchiectasis and predictors of progression in participants in low-dose computed tomography (CT) screening programs.
Materials And Methods: We reviewed our prospectively enrolled screening cohort in the Early Lung and Cardiac Action Program cohort of smokers, aged 40 to 90, between 2010 and 2019, and medical records to assess the progression of bronchiectasis after five or more years of follow-up after baseline low-dose CT.
Improvement of Mucoid Impaction with Dupilumab in a Severe Asthma Patient.
Maedica (Bucur)
June 2024
Division of Respiratory Medicine, Mito Medical Center, University of Tsukuba, Mito, Japan.
Different from intrabronchial mucus accumulation in bronchiectasis caused by chronic inflammation, mucoid impactions are observed in patients with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) and bronchial asthma. A 62-year-old man was referred to our hospital for treatment of bronchial asthma. Five years ago, he had a coronary stent insertion for myocardial infarction and was diagnosed with bronchial asthma.

September 2024
Lokmanya Tilak Municipal Medical College and General Hospital, Mumbai 400022, Maharashtra, India.
Introduction And Importance: Foreign body aspiration is a common occurrence, with severe outcomes seen in all age groups. It can present like any chronic respiratory disease with a wide spectrum of misleading symptoms, resulting in misdiagnosis and delays in appropriate treatment.
Case Presentation: Here we present a case of a 11 year boy diagnosed with occult foreign body aspiration, chronically impacted in the left secondary bronchus, presented with bronchiectasis and multiple failed attempts at bronchoscopic retrieval.
Radiation-free and injection-free imaging of the paediatric chest using a magnetic resonance imaging protocol including zero time echo sequence (3D-ZTE).
Eur J Pediatr
October 2024
Department of Paediatric Imaging, University Hospital Necker-Enfants Malades, AP-HP, Paris, France.
Unlabelled: Computed tomography (CT) is commonly used for paediatric thoracic diseases but involves radiation exposure and often requires intravenous contrast. We evaluated the performance of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) protocol including a 3D zero echo time (3D-ZTE) sequence for radiation-free and contrast-free imaging of the paediatric chest. In this prospective, single-centre study, children aged 6-16 years underwent chest CT and MRI within 48 h.
