The authors report a 48-year-old white male with lung cancer who was admitted to their clinic with a 1-year history of cough and shortness of breath. The patient was hospitalized because of progression of his complaints over 1 month. On the 3rd day of hospitalization, he expectorated a piece of gauze. The authors performed a fiber-optic bronchoscopy and saw pieces of gauze originating from granulation tissue located in the angle of the lower trachea and left main bronchi. A detailed anamnesis revealed that a mediastinoscopy had been performed 3 years ago for lung cancer staging: the gauze had migrated from the mediastinum to the endobrochial space.
作者报告了一名48岁的白人男性肺癌患者，他因咳嗽和气短1年就诊于作者所在的诊所。患者因症状在1个月内进展而住院。住院第3天，他咳出一块纱布。作者进行了纤维支气管镜检查，发现纱布碎片源自位于气管下段与左主支气管夹角处的肉芽组织。详细的既往史显示，3年前曾因肺癌分期进行过纵隔镜检查：纱布已从纵隔迁移至支气管内间隙。
