Материал из Онлайн справочника
Bronchorrhea is the production of more than 100 mL per day of watery sputum.[1] Chronic bronchitis is a common cause, but it may also be caused by asthma,[2] pulmonary contusion,[3] bronchiectasis, tuberculosis, cancer, scorpion stings, severe hypothermia and poisoning by organophosphates and other poisons. Massive bronchorrhea may occur in either bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, or in metastatic cancer that is growing in a bronchioloalveolar pattern.[1][4][5] It commonly occurs in the setting of chest wall trauma, in which setting it can cause lobar atelectasis.[6]
Diagnosis
Treatment
Treatment options for bronchorrhea vary depending on the inciting cause; they include:
- gefitinib - epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor[7][8][9][10][11]
- indomethacin[12][13][14]
- corticosteroids[15]
- octreotide[16]
- radiation therapy[17]
- bronchoscopy as is often done in the post traumatic setting.[6]
