Endobronchial Schwannoma Treated by Rigid Bronchoscopy with Argon Plasma Coagulation
Primary endobronchial schwannomas are extremely rare tumors that originate from Schwann cells. We report a case of primary endobronchial schwannoma. A 44-year-old woman, without respiratory symptoms, was presented with a nodule in the left main bronchus on her chest computed tomography scan. The nodule was removed by a rigid bronchoscopy with argon plasma coagulation. Biopsy confirmed the diagn...
متن کاملForeign body removal using bronchoscopy and argon plasma coagulation.
Foreign body aspiration can be a life threatening event especially for young children with smaller diameters of airway size. The foreign body can result in body response and granulation tissue formation around the object which makes the foreign body removal difficult. In such situations surgical intervention is usually needed but with interventional pulmonology modalities we can restrict the ne...
متن کاملEndobronchial argon plasma coagulation for treatment of Dieulafoy disease.
Dieulafoy disease of the bronchus is a rare condition. A 28-y-old male patient with recurrent exacerbations of hemoptysis (producing up to 300 mL) over the previous 4 y was admitted to our hospital following an acute episode. A 3-mm sessile lesion covered with somewhat ulcerated smooth mucosa was detected at the distal end of the left main bronchus, at the entrance to the upper lobe bronchus. B...

متن کاملArgon plasma coagulation
Argon Plasma Coagulation (APC) is an application of gas discharges in argon in electrosurgery, which is increasingly used especially in endoscopy. The major application fields are haemostasis, tissue devitalization and tissue reduction.This review describes the physics and technology of electrosurgery and APC. Some characteristics of the argon discharge are shown and discussed, and thermal effe...
