RESUMO
Bronchial anthracofibrosis is a rare disease characterised by chronic bronchial inflammation, with bronchoscopic findings showing dark anthracotic pigmentation on the bronchial mucosa in conjunction with bronchial narrowing or obliteration which causes stenosis of the airways. We describe our experience in two patients with severe bronchial anthracofibrosis and discuss a novel treatment of the stenotic bronchi using endobronchial stents.
