Role of bronchoalveolar lavage in interstitial lung disease.
Bronchoalveolar lavage remains an important research tool in understanding ILD. It is still an important part of the clinical management of patients with ILD. It is most useful in detecting unusual forms of ILD. It helps the clinician narrow down the possible causes of the interstitial pattern. It also can confirm a clinical impression of certain conditions. Although rarely diagnostic, it is of...

The present study evaluates different cellular and soluble components in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) from patients with interstitial lung disease. We observed an increased T4/T8 lymphocyte ratio in BAL but not in blood from 24 patients with active pulmonary sarcoidosis compared to sixteen normal individuals and to eleven patients with inactive pulmonary sarcoidosis.

متن کاملClinical Usefulness of Bronchoalveolar Lavage Cellular Analysis and Lymphocyte Subsets in Diffuse Interstitial Lung Diseases
BACKGROUND Diffuse interstitial lung diseases (DILDs) form a part of a heterogeneous group of respiratory diseases. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) analysis has been used for differential diagnosis of DILDs, but their clinical usefulness is controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical usefulness of BAL cellular analysis with lymphocyte subsets for the differential diagnosis...
متن کاملThe role of Bronchoalveolar lavage in Interstitial Lung Diseases.
Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD) are a group of diseases characterized by bilateral involvement of lung parenchyma, acutely or chronically, which have different degrees of fibrosis and tissue inflammation and which occur in immunocompetent hosts, without infection or neoplasia. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is a useful diagnostic tool for ILD. The cellular profile obtained by BAL, in association...
