Urinary Tract Calculi VI: Surgical Management

Urinary Tract Calculi VI: Surgical Management

Procedures for Kidney StonesMedical intervention is necessary when kidney stones or renal calculi are too large to pass spontaneously (typically greater than 5 millimeters) when stones are accompanied by symptomatic infection (such as fever or pyelonephritis), when they impair kidney function, or when they cause persistent symptoms like severe pain, nausea, or urinary retention. Additionally, patients with only one kidney or those who cannot be treated with medical management also require...

Barrett Esophagus-II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

Barrett Esophagus-II: Clinical Manifestations and Management

Individuals with Barrett's esophagus are often asymptomatic, but they may experience symptoms commonly associated with GERD, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation. Additional symptoms can include difficulty swallowing, chest pain, unintentional weight loss, blood in the stool (which may appear black, tarry, or bloody), and episodes of vomiting.
To diagnose Barrett's esophagus, healthcare providers often recommend an endoscopy for those showing symptoms of acid reflux. The procedure...

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan

Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...

Urinary Tract Calculi II: Pathophysiology and Clinical Manifestations

Renal calculi, commonly termed kidney stones, are crystalline solid masses that form in the kidneys but can occur at any point within the urinary system, encompassing the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra.The pathophysiology of renal stones involves several key factors: supersaturation of the urine with stone-forming constituents, changes in urine pH, a decrease in urine volume, and the presence of substances that promote or inhibit stone formation.Supersaturation of Urine: This is the...

Summary

This study reports the first case of a calcified bronchial glomus tumor (GT), a rare finding in the respiratory tract. Clinicians should consider GT in the differential diagnosis for calcified bronchial masses.

Area of Science:

Pulmonology
Oncology
Radiology

Background:

Glomus tumors (GTs) typically arise in extremities, rarely in the respiratory tract.
Imaging of GTs usually shows nonspecific, non-calcified, well-delineated masses.

Observation:

A 33-year-old man presented with cough, sputum, and hemoptysis.
Chest CT revealed a calcified nodular lesion in the left main bronchus.
Fiberoptic bronchoscopy confirmed bronchial glomus tumor (GT).

Findings:

This is the first reported case of a calcified bronchial glomus tumor (GT).
The patient was asymptomatic after 25 months without surgical intervention.

Implications:

Bronchial GTs should be considered in the differential diagnosis of calcified bronchial masses.
This finding expands the known presentation of glomus tumors.
