Bronchoscopic management of airway obstruction in pediatric endobronchial tuberculosis.

Jeff S W Wong1, Calvin S H Ng, Tak Wai Lee, Anthony P C Yim.   

Abstract

The present report describes a case of severe airway obstruction caused by endobronchial tuberculosis in an 11-year-old girl who was successfully treated by bronchoscopic balloon dilation. This case illustrates the insidious presentation and the increasingly important role of bronchoscopic intervention in the management of endobronchial tuberculosis. In addition, a brief literature review of the condition in the pediatric age group is included.
