Abstract

Acquired tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) is a pathological process that is occured after degeneration of tracheobronchial walls cartilage structure and characterized by expiratory airway obstruction. In this article we reported the case of 64 years old man who had acquired TBM with tuberculosis and pneumonia history. He was hospitalized with cough, sputum and dyspne symptoms who had pneumonia prediagnosis. On follow-up he had atypical cough as barking. On thorax computerized tomography (CT) there were fibrotic and bronchiectatic changes on apical segment of right upper lobe and consolidation areas on bilateral posterior segments of lower lobes. During CT section procedure we evaluated the collabation of trachea with respiratory movements. We diagnosed the patient as acquired TBM with these findings. As a result on expiratory CT section typical view is characteristic for TBM diagnosis.

Özet

Edinsel trakeobronkomalazi (TBM), trakeobronşiyal duvarların normal kartilaj yapısının dejenerasyonu sonucu meydana gelen ekspiratuar hava yolu obstrüksiyonu ile karakterize bir patolojidir. Biz bu makalede öz geçmişinde tüberküloz geçirme hikayesi bulunan ve pnömoni sonrası edinsel TBM meydana gelen 64 yaşındaki erkek hastayı sunduk. Öksürük, balgam ve hırıltı şikayetleri olan hasta pnömoni ön tanısı ile servisimize yatırıldı. Hastanın takibinde atipik havlar tarzda öksürüğü mevcuttu. Çekilen toraks bilgisayarlı tomografi (BT)'sinde sağ akciğer üst lob apikal segmentte fibrotik değişiklikler ve aynı bölgede bronşektazik değişiklikler, her iki akciğer alt lob posterior segmentlerde konsolidasyon alanları mevcuttu, inspirasyon ve ekspirasyon kesitlerinde trakeanın ve ana bronşların kollabe olduğu görüldü. Hastamıza mevcut bulgular ışığında edinsel TBM tanısı koyduk. Sonuç olarak, bu tip semptomları olan hastalarda edinsel TBM düşünülmeli ve solunum ekspiryum fazında çekilen toraks tomografisi ile tanıya gidilebileceği göz önüne alınmalıdır.
