A member asked:
What is relative narrowing of left mainstem bronchus. my 3 year old had a ct for chronic cough ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Relative= compared: The wording is a descriptor. Some kids are relatively taller than others, some wider, thinner, etc. It is not a definite diagnosis of anything. In this case it may suggest some thickening of the area tissue.
