Endoscopic injection of sclerosing agents is a strategy for control of esophageal varix bleeding. Five percent solution of ethanolamine oleate(EO) has been used as sclerosing agent. It is well known that intravascular injection of oleic acid induces acute respiratory failure in animal models.
Large type II and III congenital pulmonary airway malformations (CPAMs) can cause pulmonary hypoplasia, non-immune hydrops fetalis and fetal demise. Fetal intervention is indicated if hydrops fetalis develops. In this report, we describe three cases of type II and III CPAMs complicated by hydrops
Adverse reactions related to ethanolamine oleate (EO) include pain during injection, redness, inflammation, tissue necrosis, and allergic reaction. The authors report a patient of exuberant facial edema after the injection of EO used in sclerotherapy of lip hemangioma in a child. A 9-year-old boy
BACKGROUND
Blue rubber bleb nevus syndrome (BRBNS) is a rare vascular disorder characterized by multiple venous malformations of the skin and internal organs. Oral lesions are very common and occur in over half of the patients with this condition. Sclerotherapy is currently the first-line treatment
OBJECTIVE
To present outcomes of fetuses with congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) treated with sclerotherapy.
METHODS
Retrospective study of 8 patients with a prenatal diagnosis of CPAM type II or III with secondary hydrops treated with percutaneous sclerotherapy using 5% ethanolamine
To study the influence of Ethanolamine-Oleate (EO) used for endoscopic injection sclerotherapy for esophageal varices on the pulmonary hemodynamics, extra vascular lung water (EVLW), and pulmonary and systemic pressures measurements, and blood gas analysis were performed after injection of EO
The effect of eight ethylenediamine and ethanolamine derivatives on inflammation was investigated in the carrageenan-induced rat paw edema model. The ability of these compounds to inhibit superoxide anion radical (O2-.) formation in vitro was also examined using the xanthine-xanthine oxidase system.
Chronic triethyl tin intoxication was induced in young adult rats by oral feeding of triethyl tin sulfate. Progressively severe brain edema developed during the 3-month experimental period. The yield of myelin from the brains of the experimental animals decreased to almost half normal per brain, but
While it has long been recognized that Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary psychoactive constituent of cannabis, and other cannabinoid receptor agonists possess anti-inflammatory properties, their well known CNS effects have dampened enthusiasm for therapeutic development. On the other
From three groups of patients with corneal edema, the degree of edema was clinically quantified prior to penetrating keratoplasty. Corneas from patients with failed grafts (n = 16) had the greatest edema (mean score 3.8 +/- 0.6 SE), corneas with Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy (n = 12) had the least
In order to elucidate the role of arachidonic acid in the pathogenesis of ozone-induced pulmonary edema, isolated rat lungs were exposed to 14C-arachidonic acid in the presence or absence of ozone and the incorporation of radiolabelled arachidonate into pulmonary cell lipids was studied. The
Mast cells play a key role in inflammatory reactions triggered by tissue injury or immune perturbations. Little is known about endogenous molecules and mechanisms capable of modulating inappropriate mast cell activity. N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)hexadecanamide (palmitoylethanolamide), found in peripheral
Six substituted oxo- or hydroxy-aminoethanols and ethylenediamines were synthesized and tested as anti-inflammatory agents. 1-Substituted 4-(2-aminoethylamino)-1-butanones and 1-substituted 4-(2-hydroxy-ethylamino)-1-butanones were prepared by reacting the appropriate 4-chloro-1-butanone with the
BACKGROUND
A congenital pulmonary airway malformation (CPAM) type III may become large enough to cause hydrops fetalis. In such circumstances, the fetus can be treated with open fetal resection, maternal betamethasone administration, or percutaneous sclerotherapy.
METHODS
A 24 week gestation fetus
OBJECTIVE
Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is a rare lesion of the developing fetal lung consisting of increased cell proliferation in the bronchial structures with lack of differentiation of the alveoli. Pregnancies may be at an increased risk for perinatal loss with type III CCAM.
