We report two subjects with tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO), including the clinical manifestations, histological findings, and clinical treatments, which were analyzed retrospectively. One patient with TO was a 60-year-old woman, and the other was a 47-year-old man. The main clinical manifestations were cough, chest pain, and dyspnea. Computed tomography (CT) images showed that TO mainly occurred in the trachea and main bronchus. Histological analysis showed inflammatory exudation, squamous metaplasia, submucosal cartilaginous, and ossification. We present the two cases to increase physician and patient awareness of this benign disease and to improve their understanding of the disease manifestations and potential complications.
我们报告了两例气管支气管软骨病(TO)患者,包括回顾性分析其临床表现、组织学发现和临床治疗。一例 TO 患者为 60 岁女性,另一例为 47 岁男性。主要临床表现为咳嗽、胸痛和呼吸困难。计算机断层扫描(CT)图像显示,TO 主要发生在气管和主支气管。组织学分析显示炎症渗出、鳞状上皮化生、黏膜下软骨和骨化。我们报告这两个病例是为了提高医生和患者对这种良性疾病的认识,并增强他们对疾病表现和潜在并发症的理解。
