The study was aimed to identify the role of virtual bronchoscopy in detection of airway malacia in children. In a pre-experimental study over 3 years (from Nov. 2003 to Oct. 2006), 35 consecutive patients were presented to Tabriz Children`s Hospital with clinical manifestations of airway malacia, examined by the technique of virtual bronchoscopy. Thirty five patients including 23 males and 12 females with the mean age of 3.7 ±1.6 months were studied. The presence of airway malacia and its location and severity were determined by virtual bronchoscopy in all studied cases; that revealed: laryngomalacia, bronchomalacia, tracheomalacia, laryngotracheomalacia and laryngobronchomalacia in 42.8, 25.7, 20, 8.6 and 2.9% of patients, respectively. Virtual bronchoscopy is a non-invasive, accurate and rapid imaging technique with an excellent validity for diagnosis of airway malacia and stenosis, therefore it can replace conventional bronchoscopy. |
