Studies on bronchoalveolar cells in humans. I. Preliminary morphological studies in various respiratory diseases. 1978

L Lenzini, and C J Heather, and L Rottoli, and P Rottoli

A preliminary investigation has been carried out on bronchoalveolar cells obtained following lavage in various respiratory diseases. Of 23 cases observed, 7 have been studied in detail, 6 cases provided insufficient material for investigation, and the data obtained from the remaining 10 cases were inconclusive. Considerations are made with regard to the value of bronchial lavage in clinical diagnosis and cell studies.
