Abstract
Congenital anomalies of bronchial division are extremely rare. Presence of complete cartilaginous rings in bronchial tree with co-existent bronchial division anomalies make surgical correction more challenging, and needs a well-structured surgical pathway. We report a case of complex airway pattern similar to Christmas-tree appearance with associated stenosis due to complete rings, treated by modified sliding tracheoplasty with a successful outcome.Entities:
