endobronchial dilation

In modern cities, there is often a depression in the summer, which makes people's bronchial tubes under severe pressure, and often causes dry cough and other diseases. This endobronchial expansion can improve this situation. Treatment of diseases: tracheal and bronchoconstriction Indication Cervical bronchial stenosis caused by granulation tissue or early scarring. Contraindications 1, with systemic diseases, can not tolerate surgery. 2, local infection, not suitable for surgery. Preoperative preparation 1. Fiber bronchoscopy to examine the extent of stenosis, atresia, erosion or defect of the cervical bronchi. 2. The cervical bronchial x-ray is positive and lateral, to understand the degree of stenosis or erosion. Surgical procedure 1. Introduce a rigid bronchoscope to the stenotic lesion of the cervical bronchus to remove lesions such as granulation tissue. 2. Depending on the degree of stenosis, the bronchial dilatation strip is expanded from the small to the larger, and stays in the stenosis for 1 to 2 minutes until the expansion strip of the model enters the stenosis area and is tight and difficult to pass. Exit the bronchoscope. 3. Every 3 to 5 days, replace the larger expansion strip for repeated expansion until the bronchial cavity is enlarged, so that the corresponding type of bronchoscope can pass freely. complication Atelectasis, pneumonia 2. Thoracic hemorrhage 3. Empyema and bronchial pleural fistula 4. Esophageal pleural fistula
