Aas, K. (1970). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 45, 221. Bronchial provocation tests in asthma. Bronchial provocation tests are necessary for precise aetiological diagnosis in bronchial asthma. This is illustrated by the results in 9,364 bronchial provocation tests compared with skin tests and nasal tests. The technique of bronchial provocation testing and its interpretation are described in ...

A patient is described with bronchial carcinoid and ossification in the surrounding bronchial wall. The osseous metaplasia was the only histologic abnormality discovered in bronchial biopsy specimens taken pre-operatively. We propose that underlying bronchial carcinoid tumour should be considered in isolated bronchial or bronchopulmonary ossification.

Precice information on the treatment of bronchial asthma in Persia up to 9th and 10th century is not available. However according to some old religious books like Yasna and Vendidad, the “Haoma” had been used in the treatment of perspiration disorders and its extract had been advised by Zoraster as sacred water. There are some interesting idea about treatment of thorax diseases, which consist: ...

Culture of bacteria from bronchial secretions in respiratory patients has low sensitivity and does not allow for complete assessment of microbial diversity across different bronchial compartments. In addition, a significant number of clinical studies are based on sputum samples, and it is not known to what extent they describe the real diversity of the mucosa. In order to identify previously un...

BACKGROUND Allergic rhinitis and asthma may be associated, bronchial hyperreactivity (BHR) is quite common in AR patients. It has been reported that allergen bronchial challenge induces nasal inflammation. Methacholine (MCH) is a stimulus able to elicit BHR. There is no study that investigated the effect of MCH bronchial challenge on the nose. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate w...

Rupture of the bronchus has become more common in the last decade, mainly due to an increase in road traffic accidents. In spite of this increase it is still relatively rare, and most thoracic surgeons do not have the personal experience of treating more than two or three cases in their life-time. In 1947 Kinsella and Johnsrud reviewed the world literature on intrathoracic rupture of the trache...

•Almost all previous attempts to study the bronchial circulation have been limited to measurements of blood flow in the bronchial arteries and bronchopulmonary anastomoses. There have been two studies devoted to estimations of blood flow in the bronchial veins of the normal dog. In 1931, Berry and Daly perfused in dogs either the posterior bronchial artery of one lung or the entire aortic segme...

background: congenital lobar emphysema, also called infantile lobar emphysema, is a respiratory disease that occurs in infants when air enters the lungs and cannot leave easily. it results from cartilage deficiency and bronchomalacia causing distal air trapping and respiratory distress. in this study, we present a case of endobronchial polyp mimicking congenital lobar emphysema. case presentati...
