The lack of separation between the twoelements in the design symbolizes the free exchange of informationrequisite to orderly communication. 11° iii FOREWORD The growth of scientificresearch since World WarII'and the resulting "information explosion" havenecessitated the development of new methods of handling publishedmaterials and a new emphasis on the identification and use of existinginformation tools. An important developmentin information handling methodshas been the establishment by theNational Institute of Neurological Diseases and Blindness of the NeurologicalInformation Network. This Network consists of a group ofinterrelated information centers whichhelp scientists, physicians, andteachers keep up to date with devel- opments in neurologicaland sensory research. The Information Center for Hearing,Speech, and Disorders of HuMan Communication, one of the four centersin this Network, is located at the Johns HopkinsMedical Institutions. Its mission is to identify, locete, analyze, store, retrieve,repackage, synthesize, and disseminate information in hearing, speech,language, and communication disorders. The Information Center is staffedby a group of scientists in The Johns Hopkins University Schoolof Medicine and information specialists. The Center maintains closecooperation with the Welch Medical Librafy, the Medical Division of theUniversity's Computing Center, the National Library of Medicine, and the otherinformation centers in the Neurological Information 7747,twork. iv FOREWORD One function of an informationcenter is to identify and locate services and to provide aninventory of source materials. The rationale for Information Sources inHearing, Speedh, and CommunicationDisorders is the identification andcompilation of existing information sources in communication disordersfor the scientist, teacher, student, and librarian. Because this is a developmentaledition of Information Sources, we are particularly eager toreceive comments from users on the scope, coverage,organization, format, content of entries, and style Of writing.We also would like to hear about the uses to which this guide hasbeen put. Other products offered by theInformation Comter for Hearing, Speech, and Disorders of Human Communicationinclude Communication Disorders, a computer-based current awarenessservice; a state-of-the-art report on the AcousticNeurinoma; Ptogrammed Instruction on theDecibel in Clinical Amdiology; and anumber of bibliographies andtranslations. Although many of these materials were prepared asworking tools for the Information Center,their use by interested scientists, physicians, librarians, and informationspecialists is encouraged. This multiple application ofmaterials prepared by the Information Center, which is supported by pliblicfunds, earns for the public an increased return on itsinvestment in the National Institutes of Health programs.

Abstract: Tracheal diverticulum (DV) is a type of paratracheal air cyst (PTAC) that is often asymptomatic and usually detected incidentally by imaging methods. Tracheal DV are divided into two subgroups: congenital and acquired. Dysphagia, odynophagia, neck pain, hoarseness, hemoptysis, choking, and recurrent episodes of hiccups and burping can also be seen in symptomatic patients. Thin-section multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is useful for diagnosis of tracheal diverticulum. The relationship between DV and tracheal lumen can be demonstrated by axial, coronal, and sagittal reformat multiplanar images. Bronchoscopy can also be used in diagnosis for tracheal DV. However, the connection between DV and tracheal lumen can not be shown easily with bronchoscopy. Conservative treatment is the preferred treatment in asymptomatic patients. Surgical or conservative treatment can be performed for symptomatic patients, depending on patient age and physical condition. Keywords: Trachea; diverticulum (DV); thorax; multidetector computed tomography; tracheal diseases; chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (CODP) Submitted Sep 17, 2016.

  • The Respiratory System
    Embryology18 Dr.Ban The respiratory system Respiratory system development is a highly coordinated and complex process it’s development is tightly associated with the digestive system from the beginning.The respiratory tract is divided anatomically into 2 main parts: A-upper respiratory tract, consisting of the nose, nasal cavity and the pharynx B-lower respiratory tract consisting of the larynx, trachea, bronchi and the lungs. The pharynx is the part of the throat behind the mouth and nasal cavity, and above the esophagus and larynx. In humans, the pharynx is part of the digestive system and the conducting zone of the respiratory system. The conducting zone which also includes the nostrils of the nose, the larynx, trachea, bronchi, and bronchioles filters, warms and moistens air and conducts it into the lungs). The human pharynx is divided into three sections: . nasopharynx . oropharynx . laryngopharynx 1 Embryology18 Dr.Ban The larynx The internal lining of the larynx originates from endoderm, but the cartilages and muscles originate from mesenchyme of the 4th and 6th pharyngeal arches. As a result of rapid proliferation of this mesenchyme, the laryngeal orifice changes in appearance from a sagital slit to a T-shaped opening. When the mesenchyme of the two arches transforms into the thyroid, cricoid and arytenoid cartilages the adult shape of the laryngeal orifice can be recognized. The laryngeal epithelium proliferates rapidly, resulting in a temporary occlusion of the lumen. Subsequently, vacuolization and recanalization produces a pair of lateral recesses, the laryngeal ventricles that are bounded by folds of tissue that differentiate into the false and true vocal cords.

Huge tracheal diverticulum in a patient with Mounier-Kuhn syndrome EJCRIM 2016;3:doi:10.12890/2016_000419 Conflicts of Interests: The Authors declare that there are no competing interests. This article is licensed under a Commons Attribution Non-Commercial 4.0 License ABSTRACT Tracheal diverticulum is a rare benign entity. Tracheobronchomegaly (TBM), also known as Mounier-Kuhn syndrome, is a rare disorder characterized by marked dilation of the trachea and main bronchi, associated with thinning or atrophy of the elastic tissue. Because of the weakened trachea and increased intraluminal pressure related to chronic cough, some patients may develop mucosal herniation leading to tracheal diverticulosis. We report the case of a patient with TBM with a huge tracheal diverticulum, diagnosed by bronchoscopy and computed tomography with three-dimensional reconstruction. to our knowledge this is the largest tracheal diameter described in a patient affected by this syndrome. LEARNING POINTS • Tracheal diverticulum is a rare condition that should be considered in the presence of bronchopulmonary disorders characterized by chronic cough and repeated bronchial infection, such as Mounier-Kuhn syndrome.

  • Incidental Paratracheal Air Cyst in Papillary Thyroid Cancer Patient: a Case Report
    2339 Case Report Incidental paratracheal air cyst in papillary thyroid cancer patient: a case report Min Jhi Kim^, Hera Jung, Cheong Soo Park Department of Surgery, CHA Ilsan Medical Center, Cha University School of Medicine, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea Correspondence to: Cheong Soo Park, MD, PhD. Department of Surgery, CHA Ilsan Medical Center, Cha University School of Medicine, 1205, Jungang-ro, Ilsandong-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. Email: [email protected]. Abstract: Paratracheal air cyst (PTAC) is a collection of air in the right posterior side of the trachea with an uncertain etiology. We report a papillary thyroid cancer patient with a PTAC that was removed during thyroid cancer surgery. A 68-year-old woman was diagnosed with right papillary thyroid cancer with suspicion of central lymph node metastasis. She had a history of hypertension and a rear-end collision car accident 20 years prior. On computed tomography, an ovoid cyst was incidentally found in the paratracheal region at the thoracic inlet level. Emphysematous lung with an obstructive lung defect was noted without any symptoms. Bilateral total thyroidectomy with ipsilateral central compartment neck dissection was indicated for the patient. During surgery, removal of the cyst was inevitable for complete central neck dissection. Histopathologic analysis revealed an etiology of tracheal mucus sprouting through weak trachea points. No postoperative complications occurred. The patient continued on levothyroxine medication without further radioactive iodine therapy. After 6 months, follow-up ultrasound showed no evidence of recurrence. We hypothesized that obstructive lung disease with impaired lung function or trauma history might have contributed to the development of PTAC.
