Tracheobronchomalacia is a central airway disease characterised by weakness of the wall and dynamic decrease in the tracheal lumen and the large bronchi, particularly while exhaling. It is more common in middle age and the elderly with previous exposure to cigarettes. It causes chronic symptoms such
Hunter's syndrome is one of a group of heritable metabolic disorders caused by decreased activity of one or more of the lysosomal enzymes responsible for mucopolysaccharide catabolism, resulting in excessive deposition of mucopolysaccharides in skeletal and soft tissues. Pulmonary conditions, such
Acquired tracheobronchomalacia is seen in middle-aged and elderly people. Weakness of the tracheal and bronchial walls allows the posterior and anterior walls to draw nearer together during expiration and coughing, producing a varying obstruction. The main symptoms are dyspnoea, cough, phlegm and
The compliance and expiratory resistance of the tracheobronchial tree is increased in infants with tracheobronchomalacia because of a weakness in cartilaginous support of the airway. Life threatening episodes may occur in these patients due to airway collapse. The goals of this study were to compare
General anesthesia was successfully performed in an 86-year-old woman with severe tracheobronchomalacia Tracheobronchomalacia in adult is a very rare disease, characterized by weakness of the trachea and bronchi, causing luminal narrowing during expiration. The patient had laparoscopic
Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) and excessive dynamic airway collapse (EDAC) are both dynamic forms of central airway obstruction characterized by a decrease of >/=50% in the cross-sectional area of the tracheobronchial lumen. The differences between these two entities, however, are not uniformly
Tracheobronchomalacia is characterised by excessive airway collapsibility due to weakness of airway walls and supporting cartilage. The standard definition requires reduction in cross-sectional area of at least 50% on expiration. However, there is a paucity of information regarding the normal range
Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) results from weakness of the airway walls and/or supporting cartilage and affects both adult and pediatric populations. Diagnosing TBM is challenging because symptoms are nonspecific and overlap with those of other chronic respiratory disorders. Recent advances in
Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) describes an increased collapsibility of the trachea and bronchi that is greatest on forced expiration. A broad term, TBM encompasses intrinsic tracheal weakness, some forms of tracheal deformation, and extrinsic compression. Tracheobronchomalacia is the Tracheobronchomalacia is a weakness of the trachea and bronchi due to abnormal cartilage and muscular support leading to airway obstruction. We report a case of an adult former smoker without pulmonary symptoms who underwent robotic-assisted laparoscopic cystectomy in the steep Trendelenburg
Flat trachea syndrome, commonly known as 'tracheobronchomalacia', is a central airway disease characterised by excessive expiratory collapse of the tracheobronchial posterior membrane due to weakness in the airway walls. Patients present with symptoms such as chronic cough, dyspnoea and recurrent
Tracheomalacia is a condition of the neonatal and infant airway, characterized by weakness of the supporting tracheal cartilage and widening of the posterior membranous wall. Together, these factors cause tracheal collapse, especially during times of increased airflow. The diagnosis of major airway
Tissue engineering and cell-based therapies are promising therapeutic approaches in structural and functional defects of the trachea. Researchers have focused on these approaches to overcome the complications related to such diseases. Patients exposed to mustard gas suffer from massive damage to the
The term tracheomalacia indicates a condition characterized by a structural abnormality of the tracheal cartilage inducing excessive collapsibility of the trachea. It constitutes about half of the congenital pathologies of the trachea and is distinguished in diffuse and localized varieties depending
Spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress type 1 (SMARD1) is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by infancy-onset diaphragmatic palsy and symmetrical distal muscular weakness. SMARD1 is caused by loss-of-function mutations in IGHMBP2 gene. In this article, we report a male
