Someone would need a Bronchoplasty if they needed to fix benign and malignant pulmonary lesions.
Or the person may also need a bronchoplasty for reconstruction or repair of the bronchus to restore the integrity of the lumen.
A bronchoplasty is the reconstruction or repair of the bronchus to restore the integrity of the lumen.
Bronchoplasties have a remarkable role in management of benign and malignant pulmonary lesions.
The first bronchoplasty was performed by Bigger in 1932.
Bronchoplasty is used for various benign and malignant pulmonary lesions.
Bronchoplasty is a reconstruction or repair of the bronchus to restore its function.
During inhalation, air travels through the nose and/or mouth into the trachea (windpipe).
The trachea further divides into two tubes called bronchus (bronchi).
Bronchoscopy is a procedure to look directly at the airways in the lungs using a thin, lighted tube (bronchoscope).
The bronchoscope is put in the nose or mouth. It is moved down the throat and windpipe (trachea), and into the airways.
Balloon bronchoplasty involves the use of balloons for symptomatic airway stenosis.
Balloon bronchoplasty is a procedure essential to practice of interventional bronchoscopy.
It is performed with both flexible and rigid bronchoscopy.
