Glottic insufficiency results from impaired vocal fold contact, leading to a gap between the folds and manifesting as hoarseness and respiratory difficulties. Vocal folds injection is a commonly utilized therapeutic approach to rectify this gap by augmenting vocal folds volume; however, the optimal injectable material remains undetermined. Dedifferentiated fat cells (DFATs), derived from mature adipocytes, exhibit robust proliferative capacity and multipotency, establishing them as potential candidates for treating glottic insufficiency.

BACKGROUND Chest wall hernia and residual pleural space are known complications after thoracoscopic anatomical lung resection. Some risk factors for chest wall hernia have been described; however, residual pleural space has never been described as one of them. We present 2 cases suggesting that postoperative residual air space can represent a newly identified risk factor for chest wall hernia.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAortoesophageal fistula (AEF) is a rare but life-threatening condition. Initial management typically includes thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) or aortic graft replacement to achieve hemostasis, followed by esophagectomy with aortic graft replacement and greater omentum wrapping to eliminate the source of infection. We report a case of successful endoscopic closure of a chronic esophageal fistula secondary to AEF.

Introduction And Importance: Accidental chemical injuries in medical settings are uncommon but can have devastating consequences. Formaldehyde (commonly in the form of formalin solution) is widely used as tissue fixative in clinics and laboratories. If inadvertently introduced into living tissue, formaldehyde causes rapid protein coagulation and tissue fixation, leading to cell death and necrosis.
