Persistent Expectoration of Pulmonary Artery Embolization Coils Requiring Lobectomy.
Ann Thorac Surg Short Rep
March 2024
Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Intermountain Medical Center, Salt Lake City, Utah.
Transcatheter embolization is an important tool in the treatment of pulmonary artery and bronchial artery pseudoaneurysms, malformations, and hemorrhage. Migration of coils, particularly through erosion into the associated bronchus, is a rare but known potential complication after the use of intravascular embolization coils in the pulmonary vasculature. Here we present a case of migration of segmental pulmonary artery coils through the right lower lobe bronchus and proximally through the vocal cords, causing significant symptoms of discomfort, hemoptysis, and ongoing expectoration of coils necessitating thoracoscopic right lower lobectomy.

Silk fibroin (SF) hydrogel has been proven to have excellent applications in the field of pressure sensors, but its sensing performance still needs improvement. A flexible hydrogel prepared from natural macromolecular materials was developed, and lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) were introduced during the preparation of the SF hydrogel. When LNPs account for 3% of SF, the sensing unit of the SF-LNPs hydrogel exhibits high stress sensitivity (1.

Introduction: Endotracheal tube (ETT) malpositioning can result in a myriad of complications. Daily chest radiographs (CXR) is the gold standard in monitoring these complications. Point-of-care transtracheal ultrasound (TTUS) is an emerging imaging modality for ETT positioning.

December 2024
Soleo Health, Frisco, TX, USA.
Background: The approval of anti-amyloid monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) provides a novel approach to the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Infusions in alternative sites of care can benefit the patient financially and logistically, but coverage is largely payor dependent. The purpose of this study is to describe observations from this national complex specialty pharmacy around the safety of anti-amyloid mAb infusions in alternative sites of care, including the home.

JTCVS Open
December 2024
Department of Cardiac Surgery, Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, Mass.
Objective: For neonatal repair of coarctation of the aorta, patients may either undergo thoracotomy with extended end-to-end anastomosis or sternotomy for aortic arch reconstruction with cardiopulmonary bypass. The objective of this study was to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of the 2 approaches in patients with arch hypoplasia.
Methods: This is a single-center retrospective cohort study from July 2005 through May 2022 of patients who underwent neonatal repair for isolated coarctation of the aorta with additional arch hypoplasia.
