Paediatric Bronchoscopy and Airway Reconstruction

Paediatric Bronchoscopy and Airway Reconstruction

Bronchoscopy is a key procedure in evaluating airway disease in children, allowing for both diagnosis and treatment. Depending on the patient's needs and the bronchoscopist's expertise, either rigid or flexible tools may be used. This procedure not only provides a visual examination of the airways but also enables the collection of lung specimens, removal of secretions, or taking of a tissue biopsy. These samples can be tested for infections. While bronchoscopy is often used to diagnose respiratory issues, it can also assess the healing of the trachea, bronchi, or lungs after surgery. During the procedure performed at the Department of paediatric Bronchoscopy and Airway Reconstruction, Manipal Hospitals is performed under general anaesthesia, a thin, flexible tube with a light (bronchoscope) is inserted into the child's airway for a detailed examination.
