A new,

to re-expand

lungs was
in 14 procedures
in 12 critically
ill patients.
To
close the bronchus,
we wedge the fiberoptic
bronchoscope
into each segment
or subsegment
of the collapsed
lung
instead
ofusing
a balloon
cuff. Room air was then insufflated
into the atelectatic
alveoli after repetitive
sputum suctioning
and bronchial
washing
with normal
saline solution.
Com-
plete re-expansion
was achieved
in 12 of the 14 procedures
and partial
