Thirty-two patients who presented with haemoptysis and in whom a chest radiograph showed no suggestion of a tumour are reviewed. Six had bronchogenic carcinoma diagnosed by bronchoscopy and 1 had an adenoid cystic tumour of the trachea. Flexible fibre-optic bronchoscopy is a safe and easy method of excluding a tumour of the tracheobronchial tree as the cause of haemoptysis and should be performed early in patients who present with this symptom, regardless of the findings on chest radiography.
对32例出现咯血且胸部X线片未提示肿瘤的患者进行了回顾性研究。其中6例经支气管镜检查诊断为支气管源性癌，1例为气管腺样囊性肿瘤。可弯曲纤维支气管镜检查是排除气管支气管树肿瘤作为咯血原因的一种安全、简便的方法，对于出现该症状的患者，无论胸部X线检查结果如何，均应尽早进行此项检查。
