ABSTRACT
Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is an uncommon benign disease of an unknown etiology and it affects the cartilaginous walls of large airways. Most cases of TO have been reported to involve the lower two-thirds of the trachea and the proximal bronchi. Unlike the usual cases of TO, exclusive bronchial involvement and the formation of a solitary mass are very rare. We experienced an unusual case that had exclusive bronchial involvement and the formation of a solitary mass and this all mimicked lung malignancy. After surgical resection, we were finally able to diagnose the mass as bronchopathia osteochondroplastica.
