Previous articles on mucoid impaction of the bronchi have been reviewed and 6 new cases are reported, with special regard to the roentgenographic characteristics of this entity. Although only recently described, this entity has a somewhat characteristic appearance on the chest roentgenogram which might allow a specific roentgenographic diagnosis.
The criteria for roentgenographic diagnosis are enumerated and the differential diagnosis is considered.
