Bronchoalveolar Lavage in Malignancy
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2007Bronchoalveolar lavage is a useful diagnostic tool in diffuse or disseminated lung malignancies that do not involve the bronchial structures visible by endoscopy. The neoplastic histotype and the intraparenchymal neoplastic growth pattern are good predictors for diagnostic yield; adenocarcinoma, and tumors with lymphangitic or lepidic growth patterns ...

Bronchoalveolar lavage in a dolphin
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1997Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed twice to evaluate a stranded Atlantic bottle-nosed dolphin for pulmonary disease. A pediatric gastroscope with a working length of 1,090 mm and an outer diameter of 9.8 mm was of appropriate size for BAL in this dolphin.

Bronchoalveolar lavage in pediatrics
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1996Bronchoalveolar lavage is a relatively new technique that is used to study the local cellular, biochemical and immunological changes occurring in the lower respiratory tract. The procedure involves instilling a fixed volume of saline into a lung segment after the flexible fibreoptic bronchoscope is wedged into a distal bronchus. The saline is aspirated

Bronchoalveolar Lavage in Sarcoidosis
Respiration, 2009Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed in 1,188 patients suffering from sarcoidosis. After technical considerations, the authors analyze the results of BAL from a practical point of view concerning (1) its value for the diagnosis of sarcoidosis and (2) its prognostic value and its value for the selection of therapy, particularly for the decision as

Bronchoalveolar lavage is a technique for sampling the epithelial lining fluid of the respiratory tract. Analysis of cellular and non-cellular components of returned fluid has the potential to provide valuable information about airways inflammation. Because of the invasive nature of the investigation, there are few conditions for which repeat sampling ...

Abstract A significant limitation of standard bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) technique is the inability to measure or calculate epithelial lining fluid (ELF) volume and, therefore, in vivo concentrations of substances in the ELF. We evaluated a new rewash BAL procedure with the radiolabeled tracer technetium pertechnetate (99mTcO4 ...
