Description

Tracheobronchial anomalies are not infrequent. A total of 85 tracheobronchial anomalies were detected in 71 patients based on a review of bronchographies of 13, 222 cases from Jan. 1959 to Dec. 1984. Theincidence of tracheobronchial anomalies was 0.64% of all cases. Displaced bronchi was seven times as frequent as supernumerary bronchi. A total of 75% traceobronchial anomalles were in the right upper lobe. Tracheal bronchus was the most frequent, its incidence being 30% of all cases. A rare case of a double right tracheal bronchus supplying the entire right upper lobe (B^1, B^<2+3>) was found in a 57 year-old female with an atrial septal defect. 5 cases were complicated with cervical rib, absence of rib, atrial septal defect etc. These anomalies were considered to have occurred synchronously with the development of the airway.
