Tracheobronchial stenting in an infant with an anomalous right main bronchus

Abstract. Congenital anomalies of the right main bronchi have not been fully described. Bronchial anomalies are usually asymptomatic unless they coexist with other abnormalities. We describe a rare bronchial anomaly in a 2-month-old girl in which the right upper lobe, middle lobe, and lower lobe bronchi all originated at the same point as a result of a developmental teratogenic long right main bronchus and an absent bronchus intermedius. Furthermore, the left main bronchus contained a proximal segment of stenosis.
