THE ROLE OF FIBEROPTIC BRONCHOSCOPY IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS
From January 1982 to April 1987 , 1500 cases of fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) were performed. Among these cases, 37 were suspected of having pulmonary tuberculosis but their sputum examination was either negative or they were not able to expectorate. In all these cases pulmonary TB was confirmed either by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid examination or by biopsy. We conclude that FOB is ...

متن کاملFiberoptic bronchoscopy in the diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis.
Fiberoptic bronchoscopy was performed in 30 cases of suspected pulmonary tuberculosis. Sputum was negative for tubercle bacilli in all the patients, but in specimens obtained at bronchoscopy tubercle bacilli were found in 86.6%. By postbronchoscopy sputum smear examination tubercle bacilli were detected in 73.3% of the cases.
متن کاملFlexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy. An analysis of proficiency.
The purpose of this study was to determine the number of procedures necessary to become proficient in flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopic examination. I performed 99 bronchoscopic procedures during a formal training program under the direct supervision of instructors with varying experience. There were no statistical differences in the bronchoscopic accuracy among the instructors whose experience...
