Bronchial brush and wash material were obtained by fibreoptic bronchoscopy in 200 patients suspected of having bronchial carcinoma. Malignancy was diagnosed in 42, giving a diagnostic yield of 21%. Bronchial brush material showed the highest yield. Morphological cell typing was done on cytological material. Technical considerations, diagnostic criteria, diagnostic yield and accuracy are discussed.
