Papilloma of the bronchus.

Based on the observation of a recurring bronchial papilloma in a 56-year-old male, the authors aim at directing the interest of pneumologists, and especially endoscopists, to this group of rare lesions. The tumor observed obviously developed in a lung lobe affected by chronic tuberculosis, and presented with luminal obstruction. The histopathological definition of solitary papilloma, its differential diagnosis from from papillomatosis, the probable dignity of this type of lesions and the clinical features are discussed.

Bronchial Neoplasms↗

[Evolution of tuberculosis and lung perfusion].

Ten patients with pulmonary tuberculosis of strikingly long duration despite intensive antituberculous therapy were examined by combined lung scintigraphy (133Xe in physiologic saline i.v. and 99mTc-MAA/microspheres). As a rule the scintigraphic perfusion defects far exceeded the lesions seen radiologically. These results appear to justify the presumption that the decrease - or even absence - of perfusion in the affected areas is responsible for protracted healing in these patients.

[Proceedings: Changes in the disease pattern of pulmonary tuberculosis].

Some 100 cases of active tuberculosis of the lung from each of the years 1953, 1963 and 1973 were studied to determine changes in the disease pattern. Chronologically a reduction in the distribution of multisegmental lesions and a diminution of the number of cavities was observed, with a marked tendency towards segments 1, 2 and 6. The number of new patients diminished and that of reactivated cases increased. Particularly noticeable was the observation of more highly productive tuberculoses.
