Abstract

In recent years bronchoscopy equipment has been improved with smaller instruments and larger size working channels. This has ensured that bronchoscopy offers both therapeutic and interventional options. As the experience of paediatric interventional pulmonologists continues to grow, more interventions are being performed. There is a scarcity of published evidence in the field of interventional bronchoscopy in paediatrics. This is even more relevant for complicated pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB). Therapeutic interventional bronchoscopy procedures can be used in the management of complicated tuberculosis, including for endoscopic enucleations, closure of fistulas, dilatations of bronchial stenosis and severe haemoptysis. Endoscopic therapeutic procedures in children with complicated TB may prevent thoracotomy. If done carefully these interventional procedures have a low complication rate.

复杂性胸内结核:介入支气管镜治疗的作用

近年来，支气管镜检查设备得到了改进，使用了更小的仪器和更大尺寸的工作通道。这确保了支气管镜检查提供了治疗和介入选择。随着儿科介入肺科医生的经验不断增长，正在进行更多的干预。儿科介入支气管镜检查领域的公开证据很少。这与复杂的肺结核（PTB）更为相关。治疗性介入支气管镜检查可用于治疗复杂的肺结核，包括内镜下摘除、瘘管闭合、支气管狭窄扩张和严重咯血。儿童并发肺结核的内镜治疗可以预防开胸手术。如果仔细操作，这些介入手术的并发症发生率较低。

期刊介绍： Paediatric Respiratory Reviews offers authors the opportunity to submit their own editorials, educational reviews and short communications on topics relevant to paediatric respiratory medicine. These peer reviewed contributions will complement the commissioned reviews which will continue to form an integral part of the journal. Subjects covered include: • Epidemiology • Immunology and cell biology • Physiology • Occupational disorders • The role of allergens and pollutants A particular emphasis is given to the recommendation of "best practice" for primary care physicians and paediatricians. Paediatric Respiratory Reviews is aimed at general paediatricians but it should also be read by specialist paediatric physicians and nurses, respiratory physicians and general practitioners. It is a journal for those who are busy and do not have time to read systematically through literature, but who need to stay up to date in the field of paediatric respiratory and sleep medicine.
