bronchoscope, thoracoscope, or needle (nCLE), and directed to the area of interest where it illuminates the tissue with laser light (488 nm). Reected light in focus will pass through the pinhole, resulting in high-resolu­tion images. Moving the laser beam vertically or hori­zontally enables reconstruction of 3D images by special soware.
Both pCLE and nCLE have been used to assess pleu-
50
ral lesions. Bonhomme and colleagues
showed pCLE images of normal pleura, non–small cell lung cancer pleural metastasis, and mesothelioma. pCLE was able to dierentiate normal from malignant involvement of pleura. A subsequent study was undertaken demonstrat­ing that pCLE and nCLE could dierentiate malignant mesothelioma from pleural brosis to guide biopsy.
51
Another ex vivo study has found high sensitivity and specicity for pleural malignancy with pCLE in pleural eusion.
52
Lung Cancer
Cancer-related pleural eusions occur due to direct invasion, tumor embolization to visceral pleura with secondary seeding of the parietal pleura, hematoge­nous, or lymphangitic spread. Elastin staining and care­ful examination for invasion beyond the elastic layer of the visceral pleura should be carried out for lung cancer resections as visceral pleural invasion is important for staging in the absence of nodal involvement. It is rare to nd resectable lung cancer in the setting of an exudative pleural eusion despite negative cytologic examination. MT can assess surgical operability by determining if the pleural eusion is paramalignant or due to metastases.
25
If pleural metastases are found they denote dissemi­nated disease with reduced life expectancy and talc pou­drage or tunneled pleural catheter can be performed at the same setting.

Malignant Mesothelioma

suspected in a patient with asbestos exposure and char­acteristic CXR of a pleural eusion without contralateral mediastinal shi. Diagnosis by pleural uid cytology, even with closed pleural biopsy, is dicult, which prompts some physicians to advocate open biopsy by mini or lateral thoracotomy in order to obtain specimens of sucient size and quantity for immunohistochemical

stains.
Pleural uid mesothelin (>2 nmol/L) and megakaryocyte potentiating factor (MPF, >12.4 ng/mL), which originate from a common precursor protein, have shown 65% sensitivity and 95% specicity for pleural mesothelioma in a large study of 507 patients.
55
MT is favored over thoracotomy as the pleural spec-
imens obtained with 5- or 7-mm rigid forceps are com-
56
parable with open biopsies.
MT allows staging to be performed in a minimally invasive manner with good sensitivity. 5-ALA-uorescence VATS should be viewed as experimental but may be able to improve staging
49
accuracy.
Adequacy of tissue sampling obtained with the exible forceps is a concern in cases of mesotheli­oma, so biopsy with the rigid 5-mm optical forceps, IT knife, or cryobiopsy is recommended to establish the diagnosis.
21,22,55–57
Since mesothelioma is notorious for seeding, biopsy, MT, and chest tube sites should be cho­sen carefully to avoid tumor involvement and seeding. Boutin and colleagues recommended prophylactic irra­diation of 7Gy for three consecutive days within 2 weeks

; however, a recent randomized trial comparing immediate drain site radiotherapy (21 Gy in three frac­tions) to best supportive care in 61 patients failed to show any dierence in the occurrence of tract metastases.

As only 5% of patients are suit-
61
a palliative approach toward aggressive relief of dyspnea by removing pleural uid, talc poudrage, pain control, and prophylactic irradiation of incision sites has conferred good symptom control.
62
In recurrent symptomatic pleural eusions, tunneled pleural catheters may represent a viable option.
60
Tuberculous Pleural Effusion
e diagnostic yield of closed pleural biopsy in tubercu­lous pleural eusions is variable. In a prospective study of 100 tuberculous eusions in Germany, an immediate histologic diagnosis was established in 94% by MT com­pared with 38% by closed pleural biopsy (Fig. 17.7). A positive yield from tissue cultures was also higher with MT-guided biopsies than with closed pleural biopsy tis­sue and pleural uid combined.
reported by another study performed in a tuberculosis (TB) endemic country, where MT-guided pleural biop­sies achieved superior yield over closed pleural biopsy with Abrams needle (98% vs. 80%). On balance, it appears that MT is superior to closed pleural biopsy for TB diagnosis, and can be the rst choice if drug-resistant

TB is a concern as large quantities of pleural tissue can be obtained via MT for culture. In addition, adhesioly­sis can also be performed to promote drainage of uid loculations.

Diagnostic MT is eective in the evaluation of pleural and pulmonary diseases when routine uid analysis and cytology fail. In many institutions where facilities for MT are available, it is used aer a rst thoracentesis fails to establish a diagnosis and demonstrates an exuda­tive eusion of unknown etiology. MT can also be used to break down loculations in complicated parapneu­monic eusions. For patients with recurrent MPEs, MT combined with talc poudrage can be used to eectively drain the eusion and establish pleurodesis. is is also useful in cases of pneumothorax when pleurodesis is warranted.
Training in MT is required; the American College of Chest Physicians recommend 20 supervised pro­cedures before operators are considered competent and 10 each year to maintain competency.
rigid pleuroscope is a signicant invention in the era of minimally invasive pleural procedures and is likely to replace traditional biopsy methods.
MT will dene “when and how” to apply ex-rigid and rigid instruments for the evaluation of pleuropulmo­nary diseases.

In general the cnsensus fr apprprate tme t per­frm trachestmy s arund 10–20 days aer ntuba­tn. Early trachestmy (wthn 7 days aer ntubatn) n crtcally ll patents s asscated wth a reductn n weanng tme, cmplcatns, and mrbdty and mrtalty.

TRACHEOSTOMY TUBES AND TYPES
e man cmpnents f the TT are an uter cannula, the ange, and an nner cannula (Fg. 18.1).
e curved uter cannula (Fg. 18.1a,b) s attached t the ange and has a cu attached t the dstal end t prvde a seal wthn the trachea fr ventlatn.
e ange s attached t the prxmal end r s a part f the TT, whch s used t secure the TT n the neck wth a trachestmy te r suture. e ange s cm­mnly labeled wth the tube sze, type, and length.
e nner cannula (Fg. 18.1c) snugly ts nsde the uter cannula and en has a 15-mm adapter fr cn­nectng t the ventlatr crcut. e nner cannula can be reusable r dspsable. Reusable nner cannulas need t be cleaned at least twce a day. Sme TTs d nt have the prvsn f an nner cannula and the nner aspect s specally cated wth water-repellent materal t prevent mucus pluggng.

Patents n a ventlatr r thse wth rsk f aspra­tn usually requre a cued TT. e cu s cnnected t a plt balln (Fg. 18.1b) that prvdes nfrmatn n the cu natn. When patents are weaned  mechan­cal ventlatn, they can be transtned t a cuess TT n preparatn fr decannulatn. Cu pressures shuld be checked perdcally t avd schemc njury f the tracheal mucsa.
