متن کاملNovel strategy of endoscopic submucosal dissection using an insulation-tipped knife for early gastric cancer: near-side approach method
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) using insulation-tipped knives (IT knives) to treat gastric lesions located on the greater curvature of the gastric body remains technically challenging because of the associated bleeding, control of which can be difficult and time consuming. To eliminate these difficulties, we developed a novel strategy which we have called the "...
متن کاملon-Malignant Central Airway Obstruction
The most common causes of non-malignant central airway obstruction are post-intubation and posttracheostomytracheal stenosis, followed by the presence of foreign bodies, benign endobronchial tumors and tracheobronchomalacia. Other causes, such as infectious processes or systemic diseases, are less frequent. Despite the existence of numerous classification systems, a consensus has not been reach...

متن کاملRole of endobronchial electrocautery in management of neoplastic central airway obstruction: initial experience with seven cases.
BACKGROUND Central airway obstruction (CAO) due to malignant and benign conditions is common. Tumour ablation by various techniques helps effective palliation of symptoms in such patients. Tumour ablation using endobronchial electrocautery (EBEC) with flexible bronchoscope (FB) is an established procedure. However, there is paucity of data from India on this topic. METHODS EBEC was performed ...
