Abstract: High-pressure injection injuries are reported often in the hand and occasionally in the foot. Injection with water and air causes minimal tissue damage but nevertheless requires irrigation, minimal debridement, administration of antibiotics, and concern for...
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease or COPD.
Reinforced staple line in severely emphysematous lungs.
Abstract: In severely emphysematous or otherwise destroyed lung parenchyma, staples often cut through, which causes prolonged postoperative air leakage. A mechanical suture line reinforced by a polydioxanone ribbon is a simple, safe, and effective method for closure...
Bronchoalveolar lavage-induced pneumothorax.
Abstract: Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) has not been associated with the complication of pneumothorax. Candidates for this procedure are predisposed to develop pneumothorax due to underlying infectious interstitial emphysema. This risk factor is increased by the...
A case of delayed-onset pulmonary barotrauma in a scuba diver.
Abstract: A 23-yr-old male scuba diver was admitted to the hyperbaric chamber of the Polish Army Training Centre of Divers and SCUBA Divers for treatment of pneumomediastinum and possible decompression sickness. Medical history suggested a case of pulmonary barotrauma...
