| Popis: | The accessory bronchus involving the trachea or main bronchi is very rare. In this report, we present images of an accessory bronchus, detected by computed tomography scan and flexible bronchoscopy. Our patient was suffering from persistent productive cough and had normal chest x-ray. We review the literature to establish relationship between our patient's symptoms and this congenital anomaly. |
