Mashup Score: 4Bronchial Thermoplasty in the Biologic Era - 5 month(s) ago
Asthma is a chronic disease of airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness due to smooth muscle hyperreactivity, complicated by exacerbations leading to significant morbidity and mortality. Despite major advances in pharmacotherapy, therapeutic options for the smooth muscle are lacking and many patients remain uncontrolled.1 Bronchial thermoplasty (BT) is a nonpharmacologic treatment of severe asthma in which thermal energy is applied to the airway walls to decrease smooth muscle mass and the effects of airway hyperreactivity.

Mashup Score: 1Multifocal bronchial stenosis and extensive lobar atelectasis as a rare radiologic feature of severe eosinophilic asthma - 1 year(s) ago
Bronchial abnormalities on high-resolution computed tomography (CT) are frequent but heterogeneous in severe asthma,1 with airway wall thickening, diffuse airway narrowing, or, conversely, mild bronchiectasia and mucus pluggings being the most frequently observed.2 Focal bronchial stenosis has also been described.3 Although some degree of air trapping is frequently observed on expiratory CT, lung…

Mashup Score: 0Reconstruction of the Bifurcation of Right Upper Bronchus Using Miyamoto's Technique for Typical Carcinoid - PubMed - 2 year(s) ago
A 41-year-old woman presented with productive cough and exertional dyspnea. Bronchoscopy revealed an endobronchial tumor arising from the membrane proximal to the bifurcation of right upper bronchus, and the tumor was a typical carcinoid. The right main bronchus, right upper lobe bronchus, and inter …

Mashup Score: 4Septal deviation could be associated with the development of bronchial asthma: A nationwide cohort study - 2 year(s) ago
Septal deviation (SD) is a common anatomic abnormality. In nasal breathing, respiratory airflow is divided by the nasal septum, and in the case of SD, airflow in either nostril can be impaired, resulting in nasal obstruction and increased nasal resistance. Severe cases of nasal obstruction due to SD can lead to snoring and sleep apnea.1 In addition, severe SD affects the physiology of the nasal…
