WHAT IS BRONCHOSCOPY?

Bronchoscopy is a procedure that lets doctors look at your lungs and air passages. It's usually performed by a doctor who specializes in lung disorders (a pulmonologist). During bronchoscopy, a thin tube (bronchoscope) is passed through your nose or mouth, down your throat and into your lungs.

Bronchoscopy is most commonly performed using a flexible bronchoscope. However, in certain situations, such as if there's a lot of bleeding in your lungs or a large object is stuck in your airway, a rigid bronchoscope may be needed.

Common reasons for needing bronchoscopy are a persistent cough, infection or something unusual seen on a chest X-ray or other test.

Why it's done

Bronchoscopy is usually done to find the cause of a lung problem. For example, your doctor might refer you for bronchoscopy because you have a persistent cough or an abnormal chest X-ray.

Reasons for doing bronchoscopy include:

• Diagnosis of a lung problem
• Identification of a lung infection
• Biopsy of tissue from the lung
• Removal of mucus, a foreign body, or other obstruction in the airways or lungs, such as a tumor
• Placement of a small tube to hold open an airway (stent)
• Treatment of a lung problem, such as bleeding, an abnormal narrowing of the airway (stricture) or a collapsed lung (pneumothorax)
