TY - JOUR PY - 1979// TI - Endobronchial polyposis secondary to thermal inhalational injury JO - Chest A1 - Adams, C. A1 - Moisan, T. A1 - Chandrasekhar, A. J. A1 - Warpeha, R. SP - 643 EP - 645 VL - 75 IS - 5 N2 - A 28-year-old man who sustained inhalational injury in a house fire developed symptoms of chronic cough and hemoptysis requiring bronchoscopy. Two months after the initial injury, numerous endobronchial polyps were found in the trachea and throughout the bronchial tree. His symptoms have subsequently improved over a six-month period while receiving steroid therapy. To our knowledge, this delayed complication of inhalational burn injury has not been previously reported.
