Abstract
A 39-year-old nonsmoker male presented with complaints of cough with recurrent mild hemoptysis. Computed tomography of thorax showed nodular lesions on the right lateral wall of trachea. Fiber-optic bronchoscopy revealed multiple nodular lesions on the right lateral wall of lower one-third of trachea. Histopathological examination of biopsy specimen from the nodules was suggestive of tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica which is an uncommon airway disorder.Entities:
