Title: | Management of tension pneumatocele with high-frequency oscillatory ventilation | Authors: | Shen H.-N. FRANK LEIGH LU HUEY-DONG WU CHONG-JEN YU PAN-CHYR YANG |

The proposed check-valve mechanism for the development of pneumatoceles predicts that positive-pressure ventilation could lead to distension of these airspaces and formation of TPs. Therefore, high-frequency ventilation could be more applicable in conditions, such as massive air leak due to bronchopleural fistula, that are difficult to manage by conventional ventilator modes. |
