We present the fingings in a patient with acute thermal burn to the upper and lower airway who developed mucosal edema followed by patchy areas of granuloma-like lesions in the trachea and bronchi. A four-month follow-up showed resolution of the gross lesions, but functional alterations remained. This patient illustrates the necessity for repeated direct observation and functional evaluation of the lower airway folllowing thermal injury, which can be a life-threatening disorder.
我们报告了一名上下呼吸道急性热烧伤患者的检查结果，该患者出现了粘膜水肿，随后在气管和支气管出现了斑片状肉芽肿样病变。四个月的随访显示肉眼可见的病变消退，但功能改变仍然存在。该患者说明了热损伤后对下呼吸道进行反复直接观察和功能评估的必要性，热损伤可能是一种危及生命的疾病。
