Abstract

We report a case of an incidentally found tracheobronchial amyloidosis in an asymptomatic patient. A elderly male was admitted to the hospital for an aortic valve repair workup, and was incidentally found to have tracheobronchial abnormalities on chest CT. The diagnosis of tracheobronchial amyloidosis was confirmed by histopathological exam.
