Plastic Bronchitis: A Rare Case Report

My Heartfelt Apologies in Advance
The most disgusting thing I learned about in nursing school last semester was something called bronchial casts, which you get from having something called plastic bronchitis. Horrendously disgusting pictures after the jump. Seriously, they are nasty nasty pics.
These are bronchial casts. They are formed when rubbery phlegm collects in your lungs, and then you cough up a little model of your bronchi, in rubbery phlegm. I don't know how much respiratory therapists get paid, but it is not enough if they have to see this stuff. I'm not easily grossed out, I mean I've seen all manner of poop, pressure ulcers, etc., but this just seriously makes me queasy. I just thought I'd share.
