Supernumerary tracheal bronchus.
Accessory bronchi arising from the trachea 'are rare in man (Boyden, 1955) but common in lower animals (McEwen, 1937). When present they commonly arise from the right side of the trachea, approximately 2 cm. above the origin of the right main bronchus (Brock, 1954). Accessory bronchi may be displaced normal branches or true supernumerary bronchi (FosterCarter, 1946). In the former the accessory...

متن کاملDemonstration of supernumerary tracheal bronchus by computed tomographic scanning and magnetic resonance imaging.
A bronchus arising directly from the trachea is an infrequent congenital anomaly which usually represents the displaced origin of a normal bronchus. Rarely, a true supernumerary tracheal bronchus occurs supplying an associated tracheal lobe. The case is described of a patient in whom a supernumerary tracheal bronchus and tracheal lobe was demonstrated by computed tomographic scanning and magnet...
متن کاملTracheal bronchus associated with recurrent pneumonia
Abnormalities of the major airways are very uncommon congenital conditions which occur in approximately 2% of the adult population. Usually aberrant bronchi are asymptomatic and are only found by coincidence. We present the rare case of a 49-years-old woman with a tracheal bronchus causing associated with recurrent pneumonia of the right upper lobe.
متن کاملPartial lung resection of supernumerary tracheal bronchus combined with pulmonary artery sling in an adult: report of a case.
An adult case of pulmonary resection for repeated infections in a supernumerary tracheal bronchus combined with a pulmonary artery sling is reported. A 33-year-old woman with a pulmonary artery sling was referred for recurrent lung infections. Chest computed tomography showed the left pulmonary artery arising from the right pulmonary artery and coursing posterior to the trachea. The lung parenc...
