Bronchiolitis obliterans: An illustrative case following toxic fume exposure
Bronchiolitis obliterans is a condition where irreversible narrowing of small airways leads to chronic airflow obstruction. Usually an associated underlying condition can be identified. The diagnosis depends upon this together with the appropriate lung function abnormalities and radiological feature...
