The Use of Bronchoscopy in Bronchiectasis

FLETCHER D. WOODWARD M.D., F.A.C.S.1 and M. LAWRENCE WHITE JR. M.D.2

Although bronchoscopy is playing a diminishing role in bronchiectasis, its many uses in diagnosis, treatment, and particularly prophylaxis are so necessary and important that we feel that it should be employed in all cases—as a routine examination—in order to make a more exact diagnosis, as a method of treatment in selected cases, and finally as a most important and valuable prophylactic procedure.
