A bronchoscopy is a procedure that involves examining the tracheobronchial tree for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes. The bronchoscope can either be flexible or rigid. Flexible bronchoscopes, which are more commonly used, have multiple ports that allow the proceduralist to visualize, suction, irrigate, and take biopsies. Spontaneous ventilation can be maintained when using a flexible bronchoscope, which affords the possibility of doing this procedure on an awake patient (although a flexible scope can also be introduced via an LMA/ETT). A rigid bronchoscope has a larger working channel, which allows for the introduction of larger instruments for grasping, sampling, or retrieving samples or foreign objects.
