Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

Endoscopy is a non-surgical medical technique used to examine a person's internal organs and vessels. This lesson will focus on two types of endoscopic studies: bronchoscopy and thoracoscopy.
Bronchoscopy
Description
Bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves direct visualization of the larynx, trachea, and bronchi for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. A flexible fiber optic or rigid bronchoscope is used to carry out the procedure. The fiber-optic bronchoscope is more frequently used due to...

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a diagnostic procedure that combines endoscopy and fluoroscopy to diagnose and treat conditions related to the bile ducts, pancreatic ducts, and gallbladder. This procedure is beneficial for identifying and addressing blockages, gallstones, strictures, and tumors within the biliary or pancreatic systems. ERCP is both diagnostic and therapeutic, offering the ability to visualize and treat identified problems in one session.

Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Pediatric Surgery
  • Craniofacial Surgery

Background:

  • Coronal craniosynostosis is a premature fusion of the coronal sutures, leading to abnormal head shape.
  • Early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for optimal neurodevelopmental outcomes.
  • Traditional surgical methods can involve significant morbidity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the 15-year experience with endoscopic-assisted techniques for coronal craniosynostosis.
  • To assess the efficacy of postoperative cranial orthotic therapy.
  • To report outcomes in a large cohort of pediatric patients.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective review of 100 patients treated between 1996 and 2010.
  • Endoscopic-assisted strip craniectomy through a single 2-cm incision.
  • Postoperative management with custom cranial orthoses.

Main Results:

  • Mean estimated blood loss was 20 cm³, with only one transfusion required.
  • Mean surgery time was 54 minutes, and mean hospital stay was 1 day.
  • Significant correction of vertical dystopia (66%) and midsagittal plane deviation (80%) was achieved.

Conclusions:

  • Endoscopic-assisted craniectomy followed by cranial molding is a safe and effective treatment for coronal craniosynostosis in infants.
  • The technique is associated with excellent, long-lasting results.
  • Minimal morbidity and no mortality were observed in this series.
