Tracheal diverticulum (TD) is a rare entity in the literature. It is the consequence of a congenital or acquired weakness of the tracheal wall. The principal difference lies in the histological characteristics of the wall. Most cases are asymptomatic, but when symptoms are found, they are usually not specific. Therefore, the diagnosis is made based on the results of CT. We report a case of a 62-year-old female presenting with a chronic cough. A diagnosis of the TD was established on the basis of a thoracic CT scan.
气管憩室（TD）在文献中是一种罕见的病症。它是气管壁先天性或后天性薄弱的结果。主要区别在于壁的组织学特征。大多数病例无症状，但当出现症状时，通常不具有特异性。因此，诊断基于CT检查结果。我们报告一例62岁女性患者，表现为慢性咳嗽。根据胸部CT扫描确诊为气管憩室。
