Twenty-five cases of bilateral simultaneous pneumothorax were studied. In children it was mostly postpneumonic, whereas in adults it was tuberculous or traumatic. Prompt intercostal drainage on both the sides supported by antibiotics and/or anti-tubercular drugs, and respiratory physiotherapy was curative on most occasions. The association of bronchopleural fistula or septicaemia worsens the prognosis.
Tooth in right bronchus in a 60-year-old man who presented with recurrent episodes of chest infection, dyspnoea and haemoptysis is a rare clinical entity. The patient was cured after successful bronchoscopic removal of the tooth.
Two unusual cases of post corrosive pyloric stenosis in adults are reported. Both the cases were diagnosed clinically and confirmed by barium meal examination. Patients were discharged following anterior gastrojejunostomy. Follow-up examination did not reveal any problem. However, both of them are undergoing regular dilatation for the associated oesophageal stricture.
