Case 3 :
Question :
What is the diagnosis?
Answer :
Tracheal bronchus
Tracheal bronchus arises from trachea (or main bronchus), usually from the right lateral wall and supplies the entire upper lobe or only its apical segment. Pigs have this type of bronchus, so the other name of tracheal bronchus is “bronchus suis”. Patients having tracheal bronchus are usually asymptomatic. However, few of them have narrowing tracheal bronchus with persistent or recurrent upper lobe pneumonia or air trapping, which have been reported.
