Abstract
Attention is drawn to the importance of a temporary high position of the diaphragm, causing collapse of the basal parts of the lung. The same effect on the lung may also be caused by other conditions: pleural lesions, tumours etc. Illustrative bronchographic studies are presented. The “naked filling” of the larger bronchi is very characteristic; this picture is often mistaken for bronchiectasis.Keywords
