Abstract
Fibreoptic bronchoscopy was undertaken in 26 patients upon hospital admission, to assess if they were suffering from pulmonary lesions subsequent to the aspiration of gastric contents. In 24 of these patients erythematous lesions were observed (sensitivity of the procedure: 92.3%), mainly on the carina. Distal to the carina, the lesions were observed less frequently. The procedure caused no complications in any of the patients studied.Entities:
