Background: Morbidity and mortality from chronic lung diseases are increasing worldwide. A combination of various cytological histopathological techniques required for the high diagnostic accuracy. This study aims to evaluate compare accuracy fiberoptic bronchoscope aided cytohistological such as BAL (bronchoalveolar lavage), TBNA (Transbronchoscopic needle aspiration) FB (forceps biopsy) in lu...
The sensitivity of all fiberoptic bronchoscopic techniques in case of a peripheral lung cancer is 69%. In the study, it was aimed to assess the contribution of broncoalveolar lavage (BAL) performed before and after standard biopsy procedures in the diagnosis of peripheral lung cancer. The patients with peripheral lung lesion in radiology, and normal bronchoscopic findings were included in the s...
The methods of nonbronchoscopic lung lavage used for collection of samples of epithelial lining fluid (ELF) in intubated patients are poorly standardized and incompletely validated. In infants with lung disease requiring ventilatory support, we evaluated two techniques of small volume saline lavage for the collection of a specimen suitable for pulmonary surfactant analysis. We aimed to compare ...
A case of severe pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) with interstitial involvement, mediastinal lymphadenopathy and an elevation of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and the serum is presented. Alveolar macrophages may play a major role in these rare and seemingly unrelated findings.
Asthma heterogeneity has been described by the nature and intensity of granulocytic infiltration into the airways [1, 2]. Sputum, endobronchial biopsies and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) sample different anatomical regions of the airways. Few studies have directly compared the inflammatory cell infiltrates in these regions within a large cohort of moderate–severe asthma patients using standard t...
Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) provides an important diagnostic tool that can facilitate the diagnosis of various diffuse lung diseases. BAL fluid can be analyzed to determine white blood cell (WBC) profiles and to detect respiratory pathogens. Although BAL is seldom useful as a "stand-alone" diagnostic test for the diagnosis of diffuse infiltrative lung disease, when combined with clinical data ...
In this study, we sought to develop procedures that would enable repeated bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in individual mice on multiple occasions. To achieve this objective, we first developed the procedures that would allow individual mice to survive a whole lung lavage, and then tested whether, on subsequent days, there was an effect of this initial BAL on the cell profile, lung permeability, a...
Isolated chronic cough in childhood is a common complaint. Although the symptom cough is included in the definition of clildhood asthma, there is debate as to whether the majoritv of these children have asthma. The authors studied children with isolated chronic cough looking for evidence of airway inflammation typical of asthma, with increased numbers of airway eosinophils as assessed from bron...
OBJECTIVE To establish the role of therapeutic bronchoalveolar lavage in addition to conventional treatment among two groups, with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, in terms of regression in serum IgE levels and clinical recurrence at 3 and 6 months of follow-up. STUDY DESIGN Aquasi-experimental study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Department of Pulmonology, Fauji Foundation Hospital, ...
OBJECTIVE To characterize the relation between bronchoalveolar and blood eosinophil numbers, serum total IgE concentration, and nonspecific airway reactivity in healthy dogs. ANIMALS 26 healthy Beagles. PROCEDURE Prior to measurement of nonspecific airway responsiveness, dogs were anesthetized and bronchoscopy was performed to recover bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid. Repeated measurement...
