RESUMO
Accurate follow-up after diagnostic and therapeutic injections is extremely important in orthopedic surgery. We describe a simple, inexpensive, and convenient method of obtaining such follow-up in a precise and easy-to-interpret way. A case example is given in which this information was useful to the physician and patient.

Widespread hamartomatous proliferations are often seen with tuberous sclerosis, yet pulmonary involvement is rare. We describe a patient with a probable forme fruste of tuberous sclerosis in whom the diagnosis of bronchial angiofibromata was made bronchoscopically. This is the first description of this pulmonary manifestation.
