Title: Tracheobronchopathia osteoplastica: incidental finding at tracheal intubation. Author: Thomas D, Stonell C, Hasan K. Journal: Br J Anaesth; 2001 Sep; 87(3):515-7. PubMed ID: 11517145. Abstract: Subglottic papillomatous growths were observed on routine tracheal intubation for a scheduled colorectal procedure. Fibreoptic bronchoscopy revealed that the lesions extended down to the carina and into the main bronchi.

A brief review of this rare benign condition is given.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
