Metal allergy to Amplatzer occluder device presented as severe bronchospasm.

Percutaneous closure of an atrial septal defect has become increasingly popular among interventional cardiologists. With this relatively new technology being more widespread, it is important to acknowledge any device-related complications. We report a case of severe bronchospasm secondary to a metal allergy after an atrial septal defect device closure requiring device removal.

Tratamento cirúrgico do Broncoespasmo: relato de caso / Surgical treatment of Bronchospasm report of a case

Os tumores neuroendócrinos do pulmão podem produzir hormônios, síndrome paraneoplásica e broncoespasmo de difícil controle. Um caso raro de tumor carcimoide de pulmão com quadro atípico é apresentado com revisão de literatura. Um homem de 44 anos de idade com broncoespasmo e módulo pulmonar ao raio-x e TC foi submetido a lobectomia inferior direita e apresentou melhora clínica no pós-operatório imediato. Sugere-se que o tumor carcímoide ressecado era responsável pelas crises de broncoespasmo.

[Iatrogenic tracheal and left bronchial stenoses. Uncommon complication of Carlens tube. Apropos of a case surgically treated in a single stage]. / Sténoses iatrogènes trachéale et bronchique gauche. Complication exceptionnelle d'une sonde de Carlens. A propos d'un cas opéré en un temps.

Independent synchronized ventilation of each lung is a new form of management of severe predominantly pulmonary lesions unaliteral. Mechanical ventilatory assistance is also used via a cuffed double lumen tube (Carlens tube). Tracheal stenosis and bronchial stenosis may result from injury caused by respiratory assistance given via this tube. The etiology of the lesion appears to be direct pressure erosion of the tracheal and bronchial walls by the cuff with subsequent repair by scarformation. These lesions were present in a young man. This report describes the surgical treatment: the double stenosis was treated by resection with end-to-end anastomosis with an excellent result.

The indications, complications and results obtained in asthma bronchiale are described on the basis of 132 thoracal vagotomies according to Kux. The operation was found to be effective in 60% of the patients, without however being able to compare them by means of control examination conducted with a comparative group.
