DL branc -recurrent croup
Subject: DL branc -recurrent croup

Pt with recurrent episodic croup "PLAN: s/l "DL branc," rule out anatomical narrowing. Did briefly discuss reflux, but I would like to do a s/l "DL branc" beforehand to make sure there is not an anatomic issue.

I plan to treat him with a combination of Erbitrux and chemotherapy. I have explained to him that it is experimental therapy. There is no guarantee of success.

Subject: speaking of recurrent thyroid cancer..so in that area the intra-media-sty-num sm

Interestingly the PET scan revealed minimal FDG uptake in the right thyroid bed consistent with the right anterior tracheal lesion, and also minimal uptake in what is believed to be persistent thymic tissue in the "intra-media-stynum", but nowhere else is it noted.  MRI was reviewed as well.  This confirms a 1.4 cm enlarged lymph node on the right side at the level of C3......

The patient continued to have relapsing left lung atelectasis, but eventually it resolved with vigorous _____.


This is an almost 3-year-old who aspirated a foreign object, went to the ER 3 times and was treated there with inhalers.  Finally they found it on x-ray, removed it, intubated and sedated.  Reactive airway disease is in the diagnoses.

As an aside, for a laugh, I used to work for a neurologist who apparently had a patient pull a Rx paper off the top of his Rx pad when he wasn't looking.  The doc got a call a few hours later from a pharmacy trying to verify the Rx for "mo feen".
