For people with asthma, pneumonia can be very serious. This procedure can detect dynamic airway collapse, can reach distal regions and can obtain samples from airways or alveolar spaces for culture and cytologic examination; however, bronchoscopy should not be done before noninvasive methods fail to identify the cause of recurrent symptoms. History of pneumonia, tuberculosis, bronchitis or lung infections may be a clue to look for evidence of bronchiectais (damage to the bronchial tree) as the cause of a chronic cough.

This patient’s three episodes of pneumonia occurred in the same lung region. Despite the lack of reversibility of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and given that spirometry is not a sensitive test, particularly in children, the diagnosis of asthma was considered based to the patient’s history and CXR findings. Diagnosis of asthma, even if it can frequently cause recurrent pneumonia, was not initially considered in our patient, because he did not have the classic symptoms of episodic wheezing, atopy, nocturnal or exercise-induced cough.
