title: [Tracheobronchography in neonates and infants with obstruction of the upper respiratory tract].
abstract: In the period of 1980 to 1989 the authors performed contrast examinations of tracheobronchial tree in 38 children up to one year of age, three of them being newborns. In 29 examined children (74.4%) there was an anatomical defect causing the obstruction of upper respiratory pathways. In 15 of them the trachea compression was caused by pressure of hyperplastic thymus on the brachiocephalic arterial truncus crossing trachea. For visualization of upper respiratory pathways Hexabrix 320 (Byk Gulden) was used in 30 children, administered in 10 cases by jet ventilation. The filling was recorded by radiocinematographic method.
