متن کاملTracheal adenoid cystic carcinoma treated by repeated bronchoscopic argon plasma coagulation as a palliative therapy.
Primary tracheal tumors are uncommon, making up only 0.2% of all respiratory malignancies. Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is the most common tumor, accounting for about 30% of primary tracheal tumors. It is often difficult to manage these tumors surgically, due to its expansion and submucosal invasion, and furthermore, due to the patient's condition. Thus, it is essential to perform palliative ...

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 کاملEndoscopic Dissolution of Gastric Lipoma with Argon Plasma Coagulation

Given the patient's anemia and blood transfusion requirements, the AVM was treated with argon plasma coag...
