Resumen

Se presentan tres casos de traqueo broncopatía osteocondroplástica. En todos el diagnóstico se produjo en vida del paciente. En dos el síntoma principal fue la expectoración hemática y en el tercero la indicación de fibrobroncoscopia se basó en la presencia de una broncorrea crónica. En un caso la enfermedad afectó toda la tráquea, en otro a su mitad inferior y bronquios principales y en el restante los islotes de cartílago y calcificación se localizaron en una porción muy limitada del árbol traqueobronquial.

La tomografia traqueal y la broncoscopia son los métodos que nos permitirán diagnosticar esta enfermedad antemortem.

Summary

The authors present three cases of osteochondroplastic tracheobronchopathy. All the diagnoses were made while the patient was live. In two cases, the principal symptom was hematic expectoration, and in the third, the indication of fibronchoscopy was based on the presence of a chronic bronchorrhea. In one case the disease affected all the trachea, in another the inferior half of the trachea and principal bronchi, and in the third the islets of cartilage and calcification were located in a very limited portion of the tracheobronchial tree.

Tracheal tomography and bronchoscopy were the methods used by the authors to establish the antemortem diagnosis of this disease.
