Abstract

CHAPTER 9 Bronchography After inflation of the lungs, lesions of the bronchial tree were demonstrable at autopsy. As in the experiments of Macklin, they consisted of generalized dilatation of bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli. Moreover, in addition to interstitial and medi- astinal emphysema, blood-mixed secretion was often visible in the bronchi. It could not be definitely ascertained whether this blood derived from the haemorrhages of the lung parenchyma, or was due to bronchial rupture. In order to determine whether bronchial rupture or other bronchial lesions could be demonstrated in vivo, bronchography was performed before and after inter- mittent inflation of the lungs. The series comprised 10 dogs, weighing from 10-21 kg. In the dog, four lobar bronchi are present on the right side. They are denoted here as the upper lobe, middle lobe and lower lobe bronchi, and the bronchus to the retrocardiallobe. On the left side, there is an upper lobe, a lingular and a lower lobe bronchus.
