Tracheal Diseases

10/01/2012 - "The goal of this study was to prove the possibility of using silicone stents broadly used for human medicine in canine obstructive tracheal disease. "
10/01/2012 - "Preliminary study for a newly designed silicone stent and delivery system for canine obstructive tracheal disease."

05/01/2014 - "Unilateral pulmonary agenesis or aplasia (UPA), a rare developmental defect of the lung, is sometimes associated with congenital heart and tracheal diseases. "

01/01/2009 - "Diffuse tracheal diseases are uncommon and may mimic asthma or other forms of chronic obstructive lung disease. "

02/01/2005 - "Tracheal disease was not responsive to PDT. "

10/01/2012 - "The stent introduced in this study could possibly be applied to various canine obstructive tracheal diseases."
10/01/2010 - "From 2001 to 2007, 32 patients (aged 62.8 ± 14.1 years) with benign tracheal diseases received chest computed tomographic evaluation and Ultraflex (Boston Scientific, Natick, Mass) self-expandable metallic stents. "
03/01/2010 - "There were 35 SEMSs complicated by obstructive granulation tissue formation out of the 75 stents placed in patients with tracheal disease, giving an incidence of 47.8 % (32/67 patients). "
03/01/2010 - "This retrospective study aimed to determine the factors leading to obstructive granulation tissue formation after the placement of a self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) in patients with benign tracheal disease. "
07/01/2011 - "An endotracheal stent is the common treatment for tracheal diseases such as stenosis, chronic cough, or dispnoea episodes. "

11/01/2004 - "Statistical analysis of the relationships among epidemiological factors, HPV type, and clinical course revealed that patients with HPV-11 and patients younger than 3 years of age at RRP diagnosis are prone to develop more aggressive disease as represented by higher severity scores at endoscopic debridement, more frequent operative debridement procedures per year, a greater requirement for adjuvant therapy, and greater likelihood of tracheal disease with tracheotomy."
11/01/2004 - "In addition, patients with HPV-11 RRP were significantly more likely to develop tracheal disease, to require tracheotomy, and to develop pulmonary disease. "
11/01/1987 - "The use of this small caliber instrument has been investigated in 1) evaluation of endotracheal or tracheotomy tube position, thus decreasing the need for repeated chest radiographs to confirm location; 2) bedside evaluation of possible tracheal disease (eg, mucous plug, granuloma, tracheitis) in the intensive care unit patient to determine treatment plans and/or need for further rigid bronchoscopy, and 3) evaluation of airway dynamics in the awake patient. "

09/01/1985 - "The occurrence of complications correlates closely with the severity of the preoperative tracheal disease, the length of time the tracheostomy is needed, and the age of the patient. "
01/01/2008 - "Traumas, high pressure injuries, long lasting tracheostomy, obstructive tracheal diseases, recurrent infections of the mucous glands of the trachea with subsequent ductal obstruction and dilatation may play a role at the etiology. "

11/11/2002 - "After failing tracheoplasty with rib graft augmentation both patients suffered from extensive tracheal disease, which was too long to allow for immediate tracheal resection. "

08/01/2000 - "Trachea transplantation is possible the best method to treat long tracheal disease if the transplantable trachea is less 5 cm."
