Abstract:
This case report presents the unusual complication of bilateral temporomandibular joint dislocation following bronchoscopy, highlighting the importance of recognising it as a differential diagnosis in patients having jaw symptoms. The delayed diagnosis in this case resulted in multiple unsuccessful reduction attempts under sedation, which added to the distress of the patient. Notably, the procedure yielded a rare diagnosis for the patient that intrinsically changed the management of her breast cancer.

Endoscopic Studies II: Thoracocentesis
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...
Flail Chest-I
Flail chest is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by the fracture of three or more adjacent ribs in multiple places. It is most commonly caused by direct impacts and trauma, such as motor vehicle accidents or injuries from a steering wheel impact. It can also occur due to falls in elderly individuals with osteoporosis, or assaults involving sharp objects.
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of flail chest is complex, involving fractures of...

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...
