bronchomalacia
by theloaders, Dec 27, 2007 05:46PM
We have a daughter who is six years old. She had a bronch done today and they feel she has bronchomalacia of her left side. She also has a pectus excavatum with a Haller index of 4.9. Can the pectus deformity cause the bronchomalacia to be worse? Her history includes, GERD, Eosiniphillic Esophagitis, Asthma and aspiration. She has an excessive amount of phlem and cannot make her cough very productive.

It's a support group for parents that have children with either Laryngomalacia and/or Tracheomalacia and/or Bronchomalacia. If the site doesn't work goggle yahoo support groups then put in Tracheomalacia. You have to be a member to see everything. Just write a brief story about your situation, it gets viewed and they you get accepted. It's a wonderful support group with 58 member around the globe. The malacia's are rare and not much is known about them. Doctors try their best.
