Bronchography via the fibreoptic bronchoscope.
We have reviewed the results of 167 consecutive bronchograms carried out through the fibreoptic bronchoscope at the end of the bronchoscopic examination. Additional diagnostic information was obtained in 61 (37%) of the patients. Bronchiectasis was the most common finding and was particularly frequent in older patients with haemoptysis and a normal chest radiograph, in those with a chronic prod...
متن کاملMeasurement of bronchodilatation using a superfine fibreoptic bronchoscope.
In this study, we report the development and accuracy of a direct technique to measure airway calibre using a superfine fibreoptic bronchoscope. Ten mongrel dogs were anaesthetized with pentobarbitone and the trachea intubated with a tracheal tube; the small lumen of the tube allowed passage of a superfine fibreoptic bronchoscope (od 2.2 mm). Bronchial cross-sectional area and airway pressure w...
متن کاملTransbronchial lung biopsy through fibreoptic bronchoscope in diagnosis of sarcoidosis.
Sarcoidosis was ultimately diagnosed in a consecutive series of 79 patients, of whom 24 presented with unusual features. Histological support for this diagnosis was obtained in 37 out of 42 patients who underwent transbronchial biopsy; epithelioid and giant-cell granulomas were also found on biopsy of the bronchial mucosa in 17 out of 22 patients. Kveim tests were completed in 44 patients: resu...
متن کاملIntradural bronchogenic cysts.
The pathological findings of an intradural and extramedullary cyst in the mid cervical spinal canal are described in a 55 year old woman who presented with a short history of pain and paraesthesia of the right arm. Intradural well defined solitary cystic lesions in the spinal canal are uncommon, their pathogenesis is poorly understood, and their nomenclature is confusing. In this case the cyst ...

Bronchogenic cysts are benign congenital malformations derived from the tracheobronchial tree that correspond to non-functioning lung tissue.1,2 The majority of cases are diagnosed in the pediatric population.3 In adults they are fundamentally found in mediastinum and lung parenchyma.3 However, they can sometimes be located in the thoracic wall, abdomen or cervical region4; in the cervical area...
