Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis01:26

Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis

1.3K
Thoracentesis(Thoracocentesis), commonly known as pleural tap, is a medical procedure where a 22 gauge needle is inserted into the pleural space, the area between the lung and chest wall. This procedure is commonly performed to diagnose or treat various respiratory disorders.
Description
Excess pleural fluid or air may accumulate in some respiratory disorders in the thoracic cavity. To treat pleural effusion, a physician conducts thoracentesis by carefully piercing the chest wall and entering...

Endoscopic Procedures I: Esophagogastroduodenoscopy

1.0K
An Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is a diagnostic procedure in which an endoscopist uses a flexible, lighted endoscope to visualize the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The procedure includes visualizing the oropharynx, esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine, the duodenum.
During an EGD, the endoscope can be used to:

Endoscopic Procedures II: Colonoscopy

674
The colon, or large intestine, is the final segment of the digestive system. Its primary functions include absorbing water and vitamins produced by gut bacteria and transforming waste from liquid to solid to form stool. In adults, the large intestine is approximately 5 feet long and consists of four main sections:

Endoscopic Procedures V: ERCP

3.1K
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.

Endoscopic Studies I: Bronchoscopy and Thoracoscopy

574
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...

Area of Science:

  • Craniomaxillofacial Surgery
  • Surgical Oncology

Background:

  • Forehead osteomas are uncommon benign bone tumors.
  • They can cause significant cosmetic disfigurement and occasional pain.
  • Conventional surgical excision often results in visible forehead scarring.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe an endoscopic technique for forehead osteoma resection.
  • To evaluate the feasibility of a minimally invasive approach for improved aesthetics.

Main Methods:

  • Endoscopic resection of forehead osteomas using incisions hidden within the hairline.
  • Dissection performed in the subperiosteal plane.
  • Utilized endoscopic manipulation to avoid nerve and vessel injury.

Main Results:

  • The endoscopic approach allows for hidden incisions, minimizing visible scarring.
  • The technique facilitates precise dissection and avoids critical neurovascular structures.
  • Successful resection of forehead osteomas was achieved with aesthetic advantages.

Conclusions:

  • Endoscopic resection is a valuable alternative for treating forehead osteomas, particularly when aesthetic outcomes are paramount.
  • This technique addresses patient concerns regarding prominent scarring.
  • It expands the surgical options for Oral and Maxillofacial and Plastic Surgeons.
