Broncho-esophagology; a critical review.

It is difficult to review progress in one branch of medicine without taking into consideration the contributions that have been made in other fields and that applies to progress in bronchoesophagology. One must take into consideration the advances made in the diagnosis of bronchopulmonary diseases in other fields, notably by roentgenology, the influence of the antibiotics and the remarkable pro...

Bronchoplasty for primary broncho-pulmonary tumors.

BACKGROUND Parenchyma-sparing procedures are widely used in patients with low-grade malignancies of the airway when anatomically suited lesions exist. This study was conducted to evaluate the short-term and the long-term results of bronchoplastic procedures for patients with centrally located primary bronchopulmonary tumors. METHODS Between 2000 and 2009, 36 patients with primary lung tumors ...

CONGENITAL BRONCHO-ESOPHAGEAL FISTULA: A CASE REPORT

We report our experience with a 49 year old male patient referring with a classic presentation of chronic cough and choking episodes upon liquid intake. Broncho-esophageal fistula was confirmed b...

Broncho-pulmonary Circuits: a Synoptic Appraisal.

However, an increasing amount of information concerning the systemic contribution to this circulation, mainly through bronchopulmonary anastomoses, has made the picture complex. The intricate network that the bronchial vessels establish between the aorta and the pulmonary arteries on the one...
