Acquired tracheal diverticulum is a rare pathology that has been associated with chronic cough and lung emphysema. A 72 year-old woman was referred to a tertiary Otorhinolaryngology Department for evaluation of chronic cough and globus pharyngeus. Computed tomography of the neck and chest revealed a diverticulum of the right posterolateral wall of the trachea. The patient underwent surgical excision of the diverticulum via a transcervical approach. Symptoms subsided after surgical treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
