    WANG Li-na,MENG Fan-zheng
    2020, 35(10): 753-757.  DOI: 10.19538/j.ek2020100602
    Abstract ( )  
    Laryngeal stridor is caused by a variety of causes,often accompanied by a variety of clinical manifestations and clinical symptoms,and the causes include not only laryngopharyngeal diseases,but also subglottic and tracheal lesions. Therefore,the thin and soft flexible bronchoscopy can evaluate and diagnose the laryngeal stridor comprehensively. In this paper,laryngomalacia and other 13 diseases were diagnosed by the flexible bronchoscopy according to the anatomical sites. With the rapid development of interventional pulmonology,the bronchoscope interventional techniques such as ablation,balloon dilatation and stenting have provided minimally invasive therapy for laryngeal stridor. In the future,with more and more pediatric respiratory interventional doctors paying attention to the diagnosis and treatment of laryngopharyngeal lesions,the diagnosis and treatment level of laryngeal stridor will be greatly improved.

    2020, 35(10): 757-760.  DOI: 10.19538/j.ek2020100603
    Abstract ( )  
    Wheezing is a common symptom in childhood with many potential causes including lesions of the tracheal wall,intracavity obstruction and extracavity compression in airways.The variety of causes leads to the difficulty in diagnosis and treatment,and the effect of routine treatment is not good. Bronchoscopy is considered as a valuable auxiliary method to determine the cause of recurrent or persistent wheezing. It shows visualization of local tracheobronchial lesions and clarifies the types,sites and severity of airway abnormalities,which can provide a direct evidence in the diagnosis of pediatric wheezing disorders and function as an effective method of treatment. Therefore,bronchoscopy deserves further clinical applications.

    HUANG Han,ZHONG Li-li
    2020, 35(10): 761-765.  DOI: 10.19538/j.ek2020100604
    Abstract ( )  
    Although hemoptysis is not common in children,it can cause asphyxia,respiratory failure,shock and even death.Therefore,it is one of the critical illnesses in children. The causes of hemoptysis in children are various,and it is the premise of reasonable treatment to clarify the cause of hemoptysis. Modern pediatric respiratory intervention technology has obvious advantages in clarifying the cause of hemoptysis,bleeding site,endoscopic hemostasis,removing thrombus and improving oxygenation. However,these operations also have the risk of inducing bleeding. Improper treatment will aggravate asphyxia and even lead to death. Therefore,it is very important to standardize the application of respiratory intervention technology in hemoptysis and select the right time of application to reduce the complications and the relapse.

    CHEN De-hui
    2020, 35(10): 772-776.  DOI: 10.19538/j.ek2020100607
    Abstract ( )  
    The interstitial lung diseases(ILD) are  a group of heterogeneous diseases with various causes,also with the more etiological subtypes. The etiological diagnosis follows the procedure of clinic-radiology-pathology. The pediatric respiratory endoscopy via the interventional techniques has the direct diagnostic value for some etiological subtypes of ILD. The pathological results of the lung tissue by TBLB,TBCB or TBNA has greater diagnostic significance in DAH,PAP. The interventional bronchoscopy has the advantages of minimal invasion,quick recovery and fewer complications. Although the interventional bronchoscopy can’t directly distinguish the etiological subtype of ILD,it can eliminate special infection,and reduced the clinical diagnostic scope,which provides some clinical message for the future gene defection,having greater value of clinical application.

    WU Ya-bin,DENG Wen-hua
    2020, 35(10): 786-791.  DOI: 10.19538/j.ek2020100611
    Abstract ( )  
    Lung infection is the major cause of death in children under 5 years of age. The key to successful diagnosis and treatment of lung infections, especially severe lung infections, is to find the etiology and to treat with antimicrobial drugs for the targeted microorganism. The modern pediatric respiratory intervention techniques can obtain not only the liquid specimen of bronchial lung lesions,but also intratracheal tissue specimens and lung tissue specimens. The sampling through these microscopic respiratory intervention techniques combined with navigation technology will be more accurate and safe. With the advance of pathogenic microbiological detection technology,a clear diagnosis of pathogenic microorganisms in pediatric lung infection would be more likely to be obtained. Therefore,modern pediatric interventional pulmonologists must be familiar with and master these pediatric respiratory intervention techniques and their advantages and disadvantages in the detection of pediatric pulmonary infection etiology,and the correct choice can be made in the clinical decision-making.

    2020, 35(10): 792-795.  DOI: 10.19538/j.ek2020100612
    Abstract ( )  
    Objective To evaluate the efficacy of PEG-J in enteral nutrition for children with recurrent aspiration pneumonia. Methods Totally 12 cases who underwent PEG-J in our center from January 2013 to March 2018. The children were analyzed for surgical complications,enteral nutrition complications,postoperative nutritional status of the children,outcome of the primary disease,and extubation. Results A total of 12 children underwent PEG-J,including 8 males and 4 females,with an average age of 1 year and 5 months(4 months-6 years and 1 month). The mean duration of the disease before surgery was 7 months(2-24 months),and all the children had recurrent aspiration pneumonia,9 cases(75%) of which had feeding disorders after birth accompanied by recurrent aspiration pneumonia,4 cases(33.3%) with severe malnutrition,and 3 cases(25.0%) with moderate malnutrition. The PEG-J was successful in all the patients through one operation. Three(25%) of the children presented surgery-related recent complications. Nutritional tube-related complications occurred in 2 cases(16.7%). After jejunal enteral nutrition with PEG-J,11 patients with aspiration pneumonia were improved significantly,and in 1 patient(ball palsy with gastroesophageal reflux disease) the number of aspiration pneumonia attacks was significantly reduced. The Z-score of age-body weight for age before and after enteral nutrition was significantly increased(P<0.05),and the height for age Z score was significantly higher(P<0.05). Conclusion PEG-J is safe and effective in enteral nutrition treatment for children with recurrent aspiration pneumonia. It can not only reduce the number of episodes of aspiration pneumonia,improve nutritional status,but also has fewer side effects and fewer complications. It can be used for long-term enteral nutrition support treatment.

    Abstract ( )  
    Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and the risk factors forcomplications of typhoid fever(TF) in children. Methods The clinical data of 56 TF children diagnosed in our hospital from 2009 to 2018 were reviewed. The analysis of related factors of complications by logistic regression,estimating the relativity between age,platelet count at admission and number of complications by Spearman rank correlation. Results The symptoms of typhoid fever(TF) in children were atypical. The time from onset to diagnosis of typhoid fever was (12.0±8.3) days. In most children with diarrhea,the diarrhea often occurred within 1-5 days after fever. The positive rates of bacterial culture were 63.8% in blood culture,41.7% in bone marrow culture and 39.0% in fecal culture,and the positive rate of different disease period was different. However,the positive rate of Widal’s test was only 8.8%. Eosinophil count decreased in 73.8% and disappeared in 40.5%of the children. Children with typhoid fever were prone to electrolyte disorders(hyponatremia,hypokalemia and hypocalcaemia),especially in children aged less than 3 years. About 12.2% of the positive cases showed multidrug resistance. The sensitivity of clinical isolates to ceftazidime,cefepime,ceftriaxone,cefotaxime,ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin showed no significant change compared with that in 1993-2008. Complications occurred in 78.9%(71.7%-86.1%) of children with TF. Thrombocytopenia and the age of the child were associated with TF complications,and the degree of thrombocytopenia and age were also related to the number of complications. Conclusion Clinical manifestations of TF in children are not typical. The time from onset to diagnosis of typhoid fever was relatively long,so it’s likely to be misdiagnosed. In most children with diarrhea,the diarrhea often occurred within 1-5 days after fever. The positive rate of blood culture was the highest. For culture-negative individuals,Widal test and eosinophil counts may be useful in the diagnosis of TF. In the recent 20 years the clinical isolates are still sensitive to the third generation of cephalosporin and quinolones. Children with TF are prone to complications,and children with thrombocytopenia or older age are more prone to these complications and also more prone to multiple complications.
