    (TURKISH ASSOC TRAUMA EMERGENCY SURGERY, 2011-01-01) Tezel, Cagatay; Varer, Pinar; Baysungur, Volkan; Okur, Erdal; Halezeroglu, Semih
    Spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) is an uncommon, benign, self-limited disorder that usually occurs in young adult males without any apparent precipitating factor or disease. SPM responds extremely well to conservative treatment without recurrence in the great majority of cases. In this report, two patients who were admitted for SPM are discussed together with the associated literature.

    Uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy in a patient with carcinoid tumor located at the orifice of the right lower lobe
    (AME PUBL CO, 2017-01-01) Halezeroglu, Semih
    We present here a 47-year old male patient who had a typical carcinoid tumor located at the orifice of right lower lobe bronchus underwent uniportal thoracoscopic lower lobectomy following bronchoscopic removal of the endobronchial tumor. Tumor was seen by bronchoscopy to protrude out from the lower lobe into the intermediary bronchus obstructing the lower lobe completely and the middle lob partially. However, the origin of the endobronchial tumor was in the distal part of the lower lobe bronchus. In this case, open surgery could be an alternative to save the middle lobe by incising the lower lobe bronchus to pull out the endobronchial tumor first during thoracotomy. The other alternative could be a thoracoscopic lower bilobectomy for achieving a curative resection. In this patient, we performed sequential approaches at the same session as
