Bronchioma

Bronchi and Bronchioma

Bronchus and bronchus are two different terms in medical terminology. The bronchus is an important part of the body's respiratory system and belongs to one of the parts of the air passages in the lungs. It is a thin tube that connects the larynx to the lungs.

On the other hand, a bronchioma is a malignant tumor that occurs in the lung tissue at a lower level compared to the bronchi. It is formed from components of tiny bronchioles, which play an important role in breathing.

Although bronchi and bronchioles have different names, they are both components of the respiratory system. Bronchoma can occur anywhere there are bronchioles. This can be either a single cell or an entire bronchial tract that contains lesions.

Unfortunately, diagnosing and treating bronchiomas can be difficult.
