Safety of Flexible Bronchoscopy
Current Pulmonology Reports, 2017Flexible bronchoscopy (FB) is a procedure widely utilized in the diagnosis and management of different lung pathologies. The safety of FB in different high-risk patient populations such as severe asthma, pulmonary hypertension, COPD, immunosuppresion, obesity, elderly, increased intracranial pressure, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for ...

Proptosis During Flexible Bronchoscopy
Journal of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology, 2012Bronchoscopy has been described as a safe procedure with a low rate of complications. We present a case of a 48-year-old woman who underwent flexible bronchoscopy for chronic cough. Immediately after the procedure, she developed proptosis of the left eye that required urgent attention.

FLEXIBLE BRONCHOSCOPY IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2001Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy has allowed researchers to use the bench to bedside approach in the study and therapy of lung diseases. Through bronchoscopy, the lung is a relatively convenient source of samples for the direct evaluation of human gene expression and function.

Flexible bronchoscopy allows visual inspection of the airways and can be used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Indications for diagnostic bronchoscopy are abundant and include evaluation of symptoms such as cough or haemoptysis, evaluation of clinical findings such as suspected malignancy or pneumonia of unknown aetiology and early detection of

FLEXIBLE BRONCHOSCOPY IN NOSOCOMIAL PNEUMONIA
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2001In this article, an overview on the diagnostic performances of bronchoscopic techniques for the diagnosis of nosocomial pneumonia is given with special emphasis on the inherent problems of the methodology of validation applied to different studies. The current evidence about the importance of bronchoscopic techniques for the outcome is reviewed.

Flexible Bronchoscopy in Infants and Children
Endoscopy, 1984The authors describe the use of flexible bronchoscope in infants and children ranging in age from 20 hours to 17 years and in weight from 1.5 kg upwards. Bronchoscopy was carried out under local (17 cases) and general anesthesia (95 cases). Seventeen-six of the 95 examinations under general anesthesia were conducted using the jet-ventilation technique.

Update on Pediatric Flexible Bronchoscopy
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1994Technological advances in flexible bronchoscopy have expanded the clinician's ability to diagnose and treat pulmonary disease in children. During the neonatal period, flexible bronchoscopy has contributed to the understanding of the incidence and factors responsible for acquired airway lesions. The ability to selectively collect lower airway secretions

Flexible Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy in Sarcoidosis
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1980ABSTRACT.Twenty‐nine patients with clinical signs, chest X‐ray and histology consistent with sarcoidosis have been studied with flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FFB) and scalene node biopsy. The diagnostic yield from bronchial mucosal biopsies was 41%, and from transbronchial lung biopsy 43%. 52% of the patients showed epithelioid cell granulomas with

The Role of Flexible Bronchoscopy [PDF]
, 2012 Over the last 45 years flexible bronchoscopy has become the “gold standard” for managing the expected and unexpected difficult airway [1, 2]. Unlike rigid laryngoscopy, intubation using a flexible bronchoscope does not require that an unobstructed straight view from the upper incisors to the larynx be created for intubation. Thus, patients with limited
