A 22-year-old woman presented to an ear, nose, and throat clinic with an upper respiratory infection and sudden stridorous respirations. Aerosolized isoethrane therapy was beneficial and fiber-optic nasolaryngoscopy revealed a normal supraglottis and purulent intratracheal secretions. Secretions were cultured and grew Staphylococcus aureus and alpha hemolytic Streptococcus. IV cefazolin was initiated and the patient recovered without sequelae. This case illustrates a rare cause of upper airway obstruction, tracheitis. Tracheitis has been found in the pediatric literature. This is the first adult case reported in the literature.
一名22岁女性因上呼吸道感染和突发喘鸣性呼吸就诊于耳鼻喉科诊所。雾化异氟烷治疗有效，纤维鼻咽喉镜检查显示声门上区正常，但气管内有脓性分泌物。分泌物培养出金黄色葡萄球菌和甲型溶血性链球菌。开始静脉注射头孢唑林，患者康复且无后遗症。该病例说明了上气道梗阻的一种罕见原因——气管炎。气管炎在儿科文献中有记载。这是文献中报道的首例成人病例。
