Clinical features of children with tracheobronchomalacia complicated by pulmonary infectionsand the diag-nostic significance of electronic bronchoscopy

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with tracheobronchomalacia complicated by pulmonary infections,and to explore the diagnosticand therapeutic significance value of electronic bronchoscopy in this disease.Methods 124 children with recurrent lung infections or poor treatment hospitalized in our department from January 2018 to June 2019 were collected.Among them,46 cases with tracheobronchomalacia were diagnosed by electronic bronchoscopy.The age,sex,clinical symptoms,outcome,and related characteristics under bronchoscopy were recorded.Results Of the 124 children collected,46 cases were diagnosed with tracheobronchomalacia.The average age of children with tracheobronchomalacia was younger than that of children with non-tracheobronchomalacia,and the proportion of children under 1-year-old was high,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);Children with tracheobronchomalacia are mainly boys,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);Children with tracheobronchomalacia are predominantly male,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The children with tracheabronchomalacia complicated by lung infection had no specific clinical symptoms,the main symptoms were cough and wheezing.Children with tracheobronchomalacia were mainly mild,moderate and one part softening under the microscope,and the outcome was usually good after treatment.Conclusion Tracheobronchomalaciais one of the important factors for recurrent pulmonary infections or poor treatment in young children.Electronic bronchoscopy and lavage are of great significance for the diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of children with tracheobronchomalacia.
