Bronchoalveolar lavage, a non invasive study of the function of the lung in cases of interstitial pneumonia, offers remarkable information in immunocompromised patients, particularly as far as the search for pathogens is concerned. The different steps of the technique are reported; the special care of the lavage related to patients' condition is enhanced.
