Curvature of the trachea in pleuropulmonary tuberculosis. D-r Retrouvey (Revue de laryngol. Oto-rhinol. 1932. No. 8. Septembre-Octobre)

Abstract

The author gives a rich literary summary of tracheal deviations in pulmonary tbc, which are usually well known to internists, but attract little attention from laryngologists; and meanwhile, pronounced displacements of the trachea in the chest cavity can put you in a difficult position, especially with the introduction of a bronchoscope, which may even turn out to be dangerous.
