ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

We describe here two patients with tracheobronchial involvement by amyloidosis. One of them had presented with discrete tracheobronchial mass lesions simulating bronchogenic carcinoma. The other had intermittent streaky hemoptysis and was found to have diffuse tracheobronchial involvement at bronchoscopy. Both patients are doing well without any definitive therapy.
