Bronchoscopy for Thoracic Surgery 2019

Описание

This video shares 15 years' experience of bronchoscopy. Originally designed for the Cardiothoracic Surgical Trainees, others will find it resourceful. In particular, it's a good reference to have for chest physicians and trainees, intensivists in the ICU, and medical students interested in the details of the bronchial tree. The video is long-winded but covers important subjects. Chapter 1 covers the development of the bronchopulmonary segments and their nomenclature. Chapter 2 explains how to perform the rigid and flexible bronchoscopy and what is normal. Chapter 3 describes abnormalities of the central airways. Chapter 4 describes abnormalities of the right bronchial tree. Chapter 5 describes abnormalities of the left bronchial tree. Finally, chapter 6 shows a one-minute Quiz and the answer to how the diagnosis was made.
one of the main objectives of this video is aimed at the chest physicians (pulmonologists). It is meant to give a gist of how a thoracic surgeon thinks when performing bronchoscopy, in terms of diagnosis, tumour biopsy capabilities, assessment for lung resection and alternative managements such as laser and stenting. this should help the pulmonologist in referring their patients for surgical intervention. I hope you find it useful, and please leave your comments so that I can improve future videos.
best wishes,
