Background: Carotid blowout syndrome (CBS) is a life-threatening emergency involving the rupture of the carotid arteries and/or branches, often following surgery and radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. Our case series aimed to describe airway management strategies, endovascular and surgical approaches, perioperative resuscitation management, and clinical outcomes in a cohort of patients with CBS at a tertiary referral academic health center.
Methods: We retrospectively identified patients presenting with CBS between 2017 and 2021.
Therapeutic treatment of lung nodules by ablation is a new field. Even though not considered standard of care, lung nodule ablation can be appropriate for select cases. Even though ablation is a safe and well-tolerated procedure, bleeding is a potential complication.

The 9th edition of the TNM classification, released by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) and went into effect in January 2025, introduces refinements to lymph node (N) staging. Lymph node staging is performed minimally invasively using bronchoscopy with endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS).

While malignancy-associated coagulopathy represents the primary pathogenic mechanism, neoplastic embolization of circulating tumor cells is another potential etiology, particularly in cases of cardiac and pulmonary malignancies.
