Flash pulmonary edema is a condition characterized by sudden and recurrent episodes of dyspnea resulting from acute pulmonary venous congestion in the presence of normal or well-preserved left ventricular systolic function. This is usually associated with bilateral renal artery stenosis or stenosis
Bioflavonoids from propolis and 6-halogenated flavanones were tested with respect to their effects on increased capillary permeability and to their antiinflammatory and antispasmodic actions, respectively. The 5,7,8-trimethoxy- and 6-fluorflavanone seem to be the best compounds tested.
A goat was scheduled for experimental surgery under general anesthesia. The first attempt of performing endotracheal intubation failed and provoked laryngeal spasm. After repeated succesful intubation of inhalation anesthesia was delivered in high concentrations of sevoflurane. Suddenly hypertension
Two newborn Polled Hereford calves with hereditary neuraxial edema were available for clinical and pathological examination. The affected animals showed extensor spasms and were unable to rise. Pathologic lesions were microscopic and consisted of widespread vacuolation of the neuraxis, chiefly in
A case of negative pressure bilateral pulmonary edema in a 28 years old healthy female patient, scheduled for diagnostic pelvic laparoscopy for infertility. Following extubation and apparent recovery from anesthesia, she had strong inspiratory efforts due to airway obstruction caused by coughing and
OBJECTIVE
Negative pressure pulmonary edema has been defined as non-cardiogenic edema, with transudation of fluid to the interstitial space of the lungs due to an increase in negative intrathoracic pressure secondary to obstruction of the upper airways. This is the case of a healthy patient who
A 30-year-old man underwent tonsillectomy and laryngomicrosurgery under nitrous oxide oxygen-isoflurane anesthesia. Preoperative physical examinations and interview revealed no cardiopulmonary abnormalities. Two minutes after extubation, he showed dyspnea with marked inspiratory efforts and cyanosis
Coronary artery spasm is common during percutaneous coronary intervention and is easily relieved by intracoronary administration of vasodilators. We report the case of a patient who had severe, protracted, generalized spasm of the entire left coronary artery system during coronary artery stenting.
