Abstract
Photographic developing processes employ hazardous chemical substances, many with known adverse effects on the respiratory system. Three cases documenting respiratory symptoms and suggesting small airway abnormalities among photographic developers are reported. Work‐related factors which might contribute to these findings, as well as public health implications, are discussed.
