Foreign body in bronchus - what does this mean
What happens during the disease - foreign body in bronchus
Патоморфологические изменения в бронхах зависят от размеров, природы инородного тела и времени его нахождения в дыхательных путях. В начальном периоде возникает генерализованный бронхоспазм, местная гиперемия, набухание и изъязвление слизистой бронха, явления экссудации. В более поздние сроки вокруг инородного тела формируется капсула, разрастаются грануляции с их последующим рубцеванием.
Инородные тела в бронхах могут занимать различные позиции, ввиду чего наблюдаются разные вторичные изменения легочной ткани. При баллотирующих инородных телах просвет бронха перекрывается не полностью, внешнее дыхание критически не нарушается, вторичные воспалительные изменения в легочной ткани умеренные.
При вентильной закупорке бронха имеет место неплотное соприкосновение инородного тела со стенками бронха, поэтому на вдохе воздух поступает в легкое, а на выдохе, вследствие бронхоспазма, не может выйти обратно. Таким образом, происходит задержка воздуха в легочной ткани с развитием эмфиземы легкого ниже места бронхиальной обструкции. При полной закупорке бронха инородным телом в нижележащих невентилируемых отделах легкого возникает обтурационный ателектаз и ателектатическая пневмония.
Инородное тело бронха всегда приносит с собой инфекцию, что сопровождается местной воспалительной реакцией. Поэтому при длительно существующих инородных телах бронхов развиваются неразрешающиеся бронхиты, бронхопневмонии, деформирующий бронхит, бронхоэктазии, абсцессы легкого, бронхо-плевро-торакальные свищи.
