[Value of bronchopulmonary fibro-lavage in the treatment of severe suppurative pneumopathies].
The therapeutical use of bronchial fibroscopy is very promising. Already today it is much used in postsurgery atelectasies by obstruction or in suppurative atelectasies related to important infectious foci. It considerably improves the bronchial clearing previously done by blind aspiration or bronchoscopy. The coupling of this aspiration to a perfusion-lavage in severe suppurative bacterial pneumopathies yielded interesting results.
