paralysis, or impairment of sound transmission through the chest wall

worsening symptoms may lead to absent breath sounds. Absent lung sounds usually

indicate that no air is moving in the lung tissue.

location of breath sounds is off. For instance, a common finding is, if bronchial or

bronchovesicular sounds (i.e lounder and harsher) are in peripheral lung tissue (where

vesicular sounds usually are) this is due to underlying lung tissues fill with liquid or solid

material instead of air.
