Surgery for chronic pyothorax after failed amplatzer closure of bronchopleural fistula.
J Cardiothorac Surg
January 2025
Department of Thoracic and Vascular Surgery, and Lung Transplantation, Marie-Lannelongue Hospital, Le Plessis-Robinson, France.
Background: Post-pneumonectomy bronchopleural fistula (BPF) is a life-threatening event whose treatment is not standardized.
Case Presentation: We report the management of a 28-year-old patient with a 3-year history of BPF complicating right pneumonectomy for congenital emphysema. Despite closure by an Amplatzer device, the patient had chronic pyothorax and severely deteriorated general health and quality of life.
Preservation of the azygos vein versus ligation of the azygos vein during primary surgical repair of congenital esophageal atresia.
Cochrane Database Syst Rev
January 2025
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Copenhagen University Hospital - Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Background: Esophageal atresia is one of the most common life-threatening congenital malformations and is defined as an interruption in the continuity of the esophagus with or without fistula to the trachea or bronchi. Definitive treatment is surgical ligation of the fistula if present and esophageal end-to-end anastomosis of the two pouches, thereby reconstructing the continuity of the esophagus. During this procedure, the surgeon may choose to either ligate or preserve the azygos vein, a major draining vein for the esophagus and surrounding structures, but no definitive consensus on the matter exists.

Evaluation of Lung Adverse Events Associated With Lenvatinib: A Post-marketing Surveillance Study.
In Vivo
December 2024
Department of Education and Research Center for Pharmacy Practice, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Doshisha Women's College of Liberal Arts, Kyotanabe, Japan.
Background/aim: Despite the seriousness of lung adverse events (AEs) associated with lenvatinib, comprehensive data on these events remain limited. This study was conducted to examine the disproportionality, time to onset, incidence rates, and outcomes of lenvatinib-associated lung AEs using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database.
Patients And Methods: We analysed data for the period from April 2004 to May 2023.
Twenty years of anastomotic stenosis combined with tracheocolonic fistula after colon replacement esophagectomy: a case report.

Lanshan District People's Hospital, Department of Thoracic Surgery, Linyi, Shandong, China.
Esophageal stricture is the most common and disabling complication of esophageal injury caused by ingestion of corrosive substances. In our case, the patient developed esophageal stenosis due to ingestion of strong alkaline substances and underwent colon replacement surgery after repeated failed dilation treatments. After surgery, anastomotic stenosis and tracheocolonic fistula occurred successively, and the entire diagnosis and treatment cycle of this disease lasted for more than 20 years.
