Abstract

The Streptococcus mitis group constitutes a part of the oral flora in humans and has been reported to cause infective endocarditis, brain abscesses, sepsis, pneumonia, and peritonitis. However, the S. mitis group rarely causes meningitis in children. We experienced a case of bacterial meningitis due to the S. mitis group in a 14-year-old girl with Gorham-Stout disease undergoing treatment with sirolimus for skull base osteolysis and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak. Antibiotic treatment was initiated with linezolid and levofloxacin due to allergies against β-lactam antibiotics. On the third treatment day, antibiotics were switched to penicillin G according to CSF culture results, which were positive for penicillin-susceptible S. mitis group. Antibiotic therapy was successfully completed after 14 days without any neurological sequelae. There have apparently been no reports of S. mitis meningitis in pediatric patients with skull base osteolysis and CSF leak as in our case. Our findings suggest that clinicians should be aware of the possibility of S. mitis meningitis for patients with skull base osteolysis and/or CSF leakage., Competing Interests: All authors do not have any potential, perceived, or real conflicts of interest., (© 2022 The Authors.)

48. Endobronchial dental prosthesis retrieval by a snare technique using a flexible bronchoscope and fluoroscopy: Two case reports and technical tips.

Abstract

We describe two cases in each of which a dental prosthesis, presenting as an endobronchial foreign body (FB), was successfully retrieved using a snare technique employing a flexible bronchoscope and fluoroscopy that enabled us to avoid the need for rigid bronchoscope and thoracotomy. In one case, the FB was peripherally lodged and bronchoscopically invisible. In the other case, the FB was observed in the right intermediate bronchus, but the grasping basket and forceps were unable to retrieve it. The combination of a flexible bronchoscope and fluoroscopy extended the application of the snare technique to bronchoscopically invisible FBs and facilitated placement of an encircling loop around the FB. Since dental prostheses are rigid and irregular in shape, the snare loop technique can be used. For patients in a stable condition with a dental prosthesis FB, using the snare technique with a flexible bronchoscope and fluoroscopy is a good option. We provide technical tips based on our experiences.
