Only registered users can translate articles

A 2-year-old male with Poland-Moebius syndrome was transferred from a local hospital to the Pediatric ICU at Children's Hospital of Georgia for suspected postobstructive pulmonary edema (POPE) after tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy (T&A). The patient's respiratory status ultimately declined and he

High incidence of tracheomalacia in longstanding goiters: experience from an endemic goiter region.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Our institute caters to a large number of patients with large, longstanding multinodular goiters; tracheal deviation and resulting airway problems like tracheomalacia are relatively common. However, the literature is sparse on the criteria of early diagnosis and optimum management of

Among 1,000 operated goiters excluding hyperthyroidism, 45 were compressives (4,5%). Epidemiologic factors were elderly patients, ancient unoperated goiters and recidivism of formerly operated goiters. 1. Prognosis is not hopeless since 60% of compressive goiters were benign. On the other hand, the
