  • Title: Distal airway bronchomalacia resulting in severe obstructive airway physiology.
    Author: Lavins BJ, Hamilos DL.
    Journal: Chest; 1990 Feb; 97(2):489-91. PubMed ID: 2298079.
    Abstract:
    A 24-year-old woman, referred for treatment of presumed severe steroid-dependent asthma, was found to have generalized bronchomalacia. The diagnosis was based on an abnormal collapsibility of the bronchi on bronchoscopic examination and a lack of bronchial reversibility with aggressive bronchodilator therapy.
