title: [Analysis of the results of fibrobronchoscopy relevant to x-ray examination in 138 cases with hemoptysis].
abstract: Only 90 abnormal cases of the chest X-ray examination were found among 138 patients with hemoptysis. However the main results of the fibrobronchoscopy for 138 cases were: chronic bronchitis and pulmonary inflammation 59 cases (42.8%), bronchogenic carcinoma 41 cases (29.7%), tuberculosis 10 cases (7.2%) and others 28 cases (20.3%). Authors conclude that fibrobronchoscopy can clarify the nature of lesions and the cause of hemoptysis on the basis of chest X-ray examination.
