Abstract
- A tracheal bronchus is a congenital anomaly that is often asymptomatic but can be associated with a respiratory infection and chest pain. It is more common in men and the right lung and is seen between the carina and the cricoid cartilage. If it is asymptomatic, it does not need treatment and may be associated with other disorders such as Down syndrome. It is often diagnosed accidentally in bronchoscopy and bronchography. The left tracheal bronchus is often associated with brain abnormalities. In this study, we report a 37-year-old man who was referred to a hospital with coronavirus disease, and CT scans revealed RT tracheal bronchus abnormalities.
