title: [Parasitic invasions and bronchial obstruction].
abstract: The course and outcomes of bronchial obstruction were reviewed for clonorchiasis, metagonimosis, lambliasis. Bronchial obstruction is shown to run more aggressive course in Trematoda infestation with further transformation into bronchial asthma despite dehelminthization. In lambliasis current antiparasitic therapy is able to abolish the obstruction. In combination of lambliasis with bronchial asthma it is feasible to achieve a persistent remission of bronchial asthma.
