چکیده
|
Partial or complete obstruction of bronchial tree by endobronchial tumours results in obstructive hyperinflation,non - resolving pneumonia,or atelectasis. partial endobronchial obstruction may be associated with wheezes,which mimic asthmatic attack,non - responding to inhaled medications. here,we report a rare case of bilateral endobronchial squamous cell carcinoma,presenting with obstructive hyperinflation and wheezes,which was wrongly diagnosed as 'difficult asthma' in a forty - year old male. histopathology of endobronchial biopsy tissue ultimately revealed the truth.
