Cytologic and bacterioscopic characteristics of bronchoalveolar lavage in adult patients with cystic fibrosis during treatment
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the activity of inflammatory reactions in bronchoalveolar system of adult patients with cystic fibrosis during complex treatment.
Bronchoalveolar lavages from 8 patients with cystic fibrosis were estimated before and after complex therapy. On the basis of cytologic and bacterioscopic observations the inflammatory process of high activity and presense of mixt-infection were found in obtained samples. Improvements in cytologic parameters were not detected during complex therapy but it was possible to decrease the activity of inflammatory process in bronchoalveolar system by means of adequate antibacterial therapy.
