Bronchial diverticula are associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. With newer scanners, small structures such as these air-filled diverticula will be visible and could be mistaken for pneumomediastinum. We present a case in which retrospectively reconstructed thin-section computed tomography clearly depicted the presence of multiple bronchial diverticula enabling the diagnosis to be made with certainty.
支气管憩室与慢性阻塞性肺疾病相关。使用更新的扫描仪,像这些充满气体的憩室这样的小结构将会可见,并且可能被误诊为纵隔积气。我们报告一例,通过回顾性重建的薄层计算机断层扫描清晰地显示了多个支气管憩室的存在,从而能够明确做出诊断。
