[Pathogenic and clinical differences between stasis and chronic bronchitis].
There is often a misguide of chronic bronchitis and passive pulmonary hypertension. In 42 patients with chronic bronchitis a revision of the results was made and it was found that in 28 (67%) patients the former diagnosis of chronic bronchitis was confirmed, while in 8 (19%) patients a new diagnosis was established--a passive pulmonary hypertension and in 6 (14%) patients a combination of chronic bronchitis and passive pulmonary hypertension was found. It is considered that the symptoms like cough, sputum and dyspnea as well as the similar physical finding may lead the clinician to change the diagnoses.
