Background: Plastic bronchitis (PB) is a rare, variable, and potentially fatal disease. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in treating children with PB. Methods: In total, 15 children with PB, between 2012 and 2020, were enrolled in our study. Within 12 hours of admission, FOB and BAL were performed and reviewed under local anesthesia and sedation. Before and after FOB, clinical findings and chest imaging were evaluated. Results: Regarding the onset of symptoms before FOB, all cases had prominent cough for 7.00 ± 4.55 days, and 14 had persistent high fever. In total, 13 cases had complete obstruction from bronchial casts, consistent with consolidated lesions; 2 had partial airway obstruction. Within 3 days, complete resolution was revealed in nine cases. Overall, six cases underwent repeated FOB (range, 2-3 times) for persistent atelectasis and airway obstruction. Except for two cases with type 2 PB, cast histology confirmed type 1 PB for all cases. Only eight children had minor intraand post-procedure complications. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction for Mycoplasma pneumoniae in sputum and BAL samples were positive in 13 cases. Next-generation sequencing of the BAL samples was positive for adenovirus and Human parainfluenza virus in one case, respectively. During 1 month to 7 years of follow-up, no patient developed PB recurrence, asthmatic attacks, or chronic cough. Conclusions: Early FOB and BAL were effective in alleviating clinical findings, atelectasis, and airway obstruction. Serial FOB could be performed in patients with recurrent symptoms.

Introduction:In this study, the hematologic findings of patients who were diagnosed with H1N1 virus infection and their effects on the course of the disease were reviewed.Method: Twenty-one children who received diagnosis of H1N1 infection were included in the study. Blood count results on days 1, 3 and 7 were examined. The frequency of the 1 st day hematologic findings of the patients was compared with those of 3 groups in the same age and the same number of patients. Time of onset of hematologic findings and prognostic effects were evaluated.Results: Seven of the 21 patients (33.3%) were female, and 14 (66.7%) were male. The mean age was 5.1 years. Seven patients (33.3%) had leukopenia, 3 (14.3%) had leukocytosis, and 4 (19%) had anemia. Nine patients (42.9%) had thrombocytopenia, and 1 patient (4.8%) had thrombocytosis. Lymphopenia was detected in 9 patients (42.9%), neutropenia in 3 (14.3%), and monocytosis in 8 patients (38.1%). Three patients who had underlying chronic disease or respiratory distress died during the follow-up period. Conclusion:In conclusion, more frequent and severe cytopenias seen in H1N1 infections are thought to cause the clinical presentation to be more severe.

Recycling plastic: diagnosis and management of plastic bronchitis among adults

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Plastic bronchitis is a rare, underdiagnosed and potentially fatal condition. It is characterised by the formation and expectoration of branching gelatinous plugs that assume the shape of the airways. These airway plugs differ from the allergic mucin that characterises allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis and mucoid impaction of the bronchi. Plastic bronchitis is most often encountered in the paediatric population following corrective cardiac surgery, such as the Fontan procedure. It also occurs in adults. Plastic bronchitis in adults is rare, heterogeneous in its aetiology, and can lead to respiratory distress or even life-threatening airway obstruction. Plastic bronchitis in adulthood should not be overlooked, particularly in patients with chronic inflammatory lung diseases. This review presents current understanding of the presentation, aetiology, pathogenesis, pathology and management of plastic bronchitis in adults.
