Background: Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is a benign rare disease characterized by multiple tracheobronchial nodules, which has not been clearly illuminated and there are no standard guidelines for TO management. The aim of this study was to clarify the clinical features treatment outcomes provide basis diagnosis treatment.

Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is a rare and usually benign disorder affecting the trachea and occasionally the bronchi. A case of TO was diagnosed in a 61 year old male farmer presenting with pulmonary infections and prolonged productive cough. A bronchoscopy revealed multiple nodular excrescences aong the anterolateral wall of the trachea and main bronchi. CT scans showed...

Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TPO) is a rare, benign condition involving the trachea. TPO is characterised by osteocartilaginous nodules developing within the submuscosa of the trachea, sparing the posterior wall. We present the first documented case of TPO in Oman in a 25 year-old Omani male who presented with a recurrent, productive cough from which he had suffered throughout the...

• Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is a rare disease characterized by submucosal osteocartilaginous nodules of the trachea and major bronchi. • TO should be considered in patients with chronic cough and tracheal irregularities in imaging. • Computed tomography and endoscopic findings are usually highly suggestive of TO. • Atypical forms can be confused with tracheal amyloidosis, s...
