    Abstract As the airways of SARS-CoV-2 infected patients contain a high viral load, bronchoscopy is associated with increased risk of patient to health care worker transmission due to aerosolised viral particles and contamination of surfaces during bronchoscopy. Bronchoscopy is not appropriate for diagnosing SARS-CoV-2 infection and, as an aerosol generating procedure involving a significant risk of transmission, has a very limited role in the management of SARS-CoV-2 infected patients including children. During the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic rigid bronchoscopy should be avoided due to the increased risk of droplet spread. Flexible bronchoscopy should be performed first in SARS-CoV-2 positive individuals or in unknown cases, to determine if rigid bronchoscopy is indicated. When available single-use flexible bronchoscopes may be considered for use; devices are available with a range of diameters, and improved image quality and degrees of angulation. When rigid bronchoscopy is necessary, jet ventilation must be avoided and conventional ventilation be used to reduce the risk of aerosolisation. Adequate personal protection equipment is key, as is training of health care workers in correct donning and doffing. Modified full face masks are a practical and safe alternative to filtering facepieces for use in bronchoscopy. When anaesthetic and infection prevention control protocols are strictly adhered to, bronchoscopy can be performed in SARS-CoV-2 positive children.

    Abstract A middle childhood HIV-negative female patient presented with three episodes of haemoptysis. The chest X-ray demonstrated an oval-shaped, well-circumscribed left upper lobe homogenous opacification. She did not respond to tuberculosis treatment. A left upper lobectomy was performed for a solid mass in the lung, and hydatic disease was histologically confirmed. Calcification was found in the pulmonary lesion. Pulmonary hydatic cyst rarely presents as a solid lesion with calcifications and haemoptysis.

    Abstract Obstructive fibrinous tracheal pseudomembrane (OFTP) is a rare complication usually following endotracheal intubation, occurring when a collection of inflammatory exudate coalesces at the site of damaged epithelium within the trachea and along the tracheal mucosa, creating a luminal narrowing and subsequent airway obstruction.

    Abstract Lung disease with diffuse nodules has a broad differential diagnosis. We present a case of childhood papillary thyroid carcinoma with diffuse lung metastases in which the diagnosis was delayed due to fact that the diffuse nodules were considered to be pathognomonic of miliary tuberculosis. Diffuse nodular lung disease in children requires a careful diagnostic approach. The role of multidisciplinary involvement in these rare cases is invaluable.
