Abstract |
A bronchial cast is an uncommon condition in children. Asthma or allergy often is the cause of cast
production but in some instances no allergy is found. We have recently experienced a case of fibrinous
bronchial cast in a 14 month-olf female. The diagnosis was made by chest X-ray, bronchoscopic
extraction and histologic examination. |
