133 – Granuloma

133 - pale granuloma

131 – Carina Enlarged

131 - Carina tracheal widened and fixed

Tracheal carina enlarged and fixed. The entrance to the source bronchi is asymmetric due to unequal reduction in its diameters, due to compression and regular edema.

130 – Endotracheal Tumor

130 - Trachea compression

Left lateral compression on the trachea that can only be appreciated by the asymmetry at the source of the bronchial foramen, towards which appears a formation that emerges from the right lateral wall of the trachea and subocludes the entrance to the main bronchus on the same side. Observe the bulging of the posterior mucous … Read more

129 – Tracheal Compression in “Sabre Pod”

129 - Trachea in "saber scabbard"

Trachea in “saber scabbard”. Appropriate analogy for this severe and prolonged compression of the trachea by an endothoracic goiter. The cartilaginous reliefs have been lost and the edema gives a regular appearance to the entire mucosa. The rear wall is now a narrow and straight corridor that leads to the carina.

125 – Chronic airway irritation

125 - Chronic bronchitis

Chronic bronchitis Forward displacement of the posterior wall of the right source bronchus during inspiration. The depth of the longitudinal folds is maintained and does not disappear, as occurs when the wall is “stretched” by extrinsic compression. Here the alteration is dynamic and is due to the flaccidity of the mucosa and the elastic bands.
