Since 1953, many studies on the tuberculous lesions of draining bronchus have been carried out. with resected specimens. Some of those studies were performed on broncho-cavitary junctions. from the standpoint of cavity healing, and the others were made on bronchial stumps in view of bronchial fistula after surgical treatment. There is no doubt about the progress of bronchial lesion from broncho-cavitary junction to hilar bronchus. There are, however, only a few studies on the mode of this expansion and on the extent of the lesion in the bronchial trees. It is the purpose of this report to describe the observation on these points.
