title: Nomenclature proposal for postsegmental bronchi.
abstract: The use of flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy has given a chance to deeper visualization of the bronchial tree. For this reason, the classical bronchial nomenclature becomes much more annoying when denominating pathological processes located in the most peripheral bronchi. The authors suggest a new nomenclature for an easier and more practical use.
