Pneumothorax during manned chamber operations: A summary of reported cases
Undersea Hyperb Med. 2024 First Quarter;51(1):29-35.ABSTRACTIn-chamber pneumothorax has complicated medically remote professional diving operations, submarine escape training, management of decompression illness, and hospital-based provision of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Attempts to avoid thoracotomy by combination of high oxygen partial pressure breathing (the concept of inherent unsaturation) and greatly slowed rates of chamber decompression proved successful on several occasions. When this delicate balance designed to prevent the intrapleural gas volume from expanding faster than it contracts proved futile, chest drains...

One-Lung Ventilation in a Small Child
We congratulate Maddali et al. for the successful management of a challenging case involving a 2-yr-old undergoing one-lung ventilation for right thoracotomy.1 Withdrawal of a single-lumen endotracheal tube from the left mainstem bronchus is also helpful to temporarily resume bilateral ventilation when oxygen desaturation occurs during one-lung ventilation. Placement of a single-lumen endotracheal tube into the left mainstem bronchus may be difficult and can be facilitated by rotation of the bevel (depending on the model) and patient's head before advancement.

Comparing the safety and effectiveness of surgical approaches in thymectomy
ConclusionsOur results suggest that with a shorter LOS, robotics, subxiphoid and LVATS thymectomies are safe. Larger size studies are required to compare R0 resection rates between these less invasive surgical approaches. (Source: Surgical Practice)

Infected Ruptured Pseudo-aneurysm in Descending Aorta; a Case Report
Arch Acad Emerg Med. 2024 Jan 7;12(1):e23. doi: 10.22037/aaem.v12i1.2203. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTAortitis is the inflammation of the aortic wall. It can be caused by both infectious and non-infectious etiologies. Mycotic aneurysm is a rare, serious medical condition and typically requires prompt treatment with antibiotics, surgical intervention, or endovascular procedures to prevent rupture and complications. Here we reported, a 66-year-old male patient with a medical history of diabetes and hypertension, who presented to the emergency department (ED) with left-sided hemiplegia. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) rev...
