[Diagnosis and treatment of expiratory stenosis of the trachea and main bronchi in children]. 1991

V N Novikov, and O E Gruzintseva, and T A Chirkina, and A Iu Medvedev

The results of examination and the course of expiratory stenosis were studied in 15 children, 3 of them suffered from bronchomalacia of the left main bronchus. Bronchoscopy and poly-positional radioscopy with contrast study of the trachea and the large bronchi are the principal diagnostic methods in this disease. Sclerosing therapy was carried out in III degree expiratory stenosis. Two patients with bronchomalacia of the main bronchus and cystic lung hypoplasia underwent pulmonectomy with treatment of the main bronchus at the site of its branching off from the tracheal bifurcation. The results of sclerosing therapy and operations were good.
