Popis: Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is a rare and benign pathological condition of the upper pulmonary tract of unknown cause. Often diagnosed after 50 years of age, it is more common in men. Clinical manifestations are variable and unspecific. Endoscopic findings are the main argument for the diagnosis. We report the case of a 41 year-old woman with TO, presenting a chronic cough and recurrent hemoptysis.
