This document discusses foreign bodies in the esophagus. It notes that coins and food items are commonly ingested, especially by children and elderly patients. Symptoms depend on the patient's age but may include irritability, coughing, and difficulty swallowing. Radiography is the main diagnostic tool, where radio-opaque objects like coins can be seen. Treatment depends on the object's size, shape and location. Flexible endoscopy under local anesthesia is generally preferred but surgery may be needed for sharp or impacted objects or if perforation is suspected. Complications of removal procedures include esophageal trauma and infections.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

2. Introduction:
• Esophageal foreign bodies are not so dangerous
as air way foreign bodies. But this is a very
common problem among children and elderly.
• Anatomically these foreign bodies are commonly
found at the various natural constrictions of
oesophagus (i.e.at cricopharynx, the cross over
of the aortic arch at the level of mid esophagus,
and at the lower end of esophagus).
3.
4.
5. Common F.B. in Esophagus
• Metalic - Coins, Pins, Safety pins, Buttons,
Button batteries, Pieces of metal object,
blades, broken spoons
• Non metallic – Glass beads, Marbles, Plastic
toys or pieces of plastic object, Impacted food
bolus, pencil piece
• Dentures partial , Teeth –artificial or natural,
Fish Bone, meat or chicken bone
• Any small thing
6. Patients with Esophageal foreign
bodies:
• 1. Pediatric patients
• 2. Psychiatric patients
• 3. Patients with underlying esophageal
disorders like malignancy,strictures,aclasia
• 4. Edentulous patients (elderly)
7. Clinical presentation:
• This depends on whether the patient is a child or adult. Adults usually
describe the event clearly and acknowledge the possibility of the presence
of foreign body in the food passage
• In children symptoms include:
1. Irritability
2. Poor feeding
3. Drooling
4. Chest pain
5. Coughing
• Respiratory symptoms due to esophageal foreign body is common in
children because of their small and compressible tracheal lumen. These
symptoms include stridor, coughing, and labored breathing.
• Physical examination:
This does not play an important role in establishing the
diagnosis. Children with oesophageal foreign body tends to drool. Clinical
examination is usually unremarkable in most of these patients
8. Role of radiography:
• Main diagnostic tool in oesophageal foreign bodies is
radiography. Commonly these foreign bodies tend to be
radio opaque. coins are commonly ingested by
children. Food products are the other commonly
encountered foreign body. Plain radiographs in these
patients may demonstrate bone / cartilage present in the
food elements.Both antero posterior and lateral views must
necessarily be performed to localize the foreign body. CT
Scan gives better information If plain films are not diagnostic
then barium swallow should be performed
*Caution: Gastrograffin should not be used because it
may cause severe chemical pneumonitis if aspirated.
13. Treatment:
• Following factors should be considered in the management
of foreign body oesophagus -
a. Type / location of the ingested foreign body
b. Interval between ingestion and presentation
c. Age of the patient – Child, Old person
Ingestion of caustic foreign bodies like button batteries
should be considered as an emergency. Delay in these
patients may lead to esophageal perforation.
Sharp metallic objects like pins, needles, razor blades, and
nails should always be removed under controlled operating
room conditions.Danger of perforation is significant
14. Endoscopic removal of foreign bodies:
• Foreign bodies impacted at the level of cricopharynx should
be removed using an upper esophageal speculum. This can
be performedeither under local / general anesthesia.
• Foreign bodies of esophagus can be removed using an
oesophagoscope. General anesthesia is preferred in
children .It provides adequate relaxation making the
passage of oesophagoscope smooth and atraumatic. Local
anesthesia can be used if flexible oesophagoscope is used.
• Types of Esophagus- -
a. Rigid Esophagoscope – Made of metal .G.A is needed in
most of patients. - Lumen is large so forceps can be used
easily. - Needs more expertise. – Perforation rate more
b. Fiberoptic Esophagoscope - Flexible structure, Can be
done under L.A. in OPD or bedside. - Small lumen forceps
manipulations not easy. Lower perforation rate.
15. Endoscopic removal of F.B
• Balloon catheters can be used to extract impacted
foreign body in the oesophagus. This method can be
used only if the foreign body ingested is single,
smooth and radio opaque. These patients should
have no history of esophageal disorder / injury.
This procedure is performed by placing the patient in
head down position. The catheter is passed nasally or
orally under fluoroscopic guidance past the foreign
body. The balloon is inflated with a radio opaque
solution and is slowly pulled out along with the
foreign body under fluoroscopic guidance.
18. Surgery for F.B. Esophagus
• Indications-a.
F.B. Impacted in wall of esophagus-dentures,
metal nails or screws
b. Sharp F.B. – blade, knife, needles,
c. Suspected perforation
d. F.B. along with esophageal pathology -
Carcinoma, cardiac achalasia, stricture
19. Surgical procedures
• Depending upon where the F.B. is lodged in
esophagus the procedure is planned
a. In neck left side cervical esophagostomy
is done and F.B. is removed
b. If it is in the thoracic esophagus a right
side postolateral thoracotomy is approach
of choice to remove F.B. Whole thoracic
esophagus can be approached from RT PLT
C.F.B. impacted near cardiac end (lower end)
is removed by a upper laparotomy.
