Abnormal bronchi originating from the trachea or main bronchi are rare anomalies, with one of the most significant of these abnormalities being tracheal bronchus. It is usually asymptomatic, and is usually diagnosed from a computed tomography or bronchoscopy made for another reasons. The bronchial anatomy is recognized by the radiologist in order to guide possible interventions. In this case report we present a particularly rare case of tracheal bronchus, with the computed tomography findings and accompanying literature.

Trakea ya da ana bronþlardan köken alan dallanma anomalileri nadirdir. Trakeal bronþ da bu anomalilerden biridir. Genellikle semptomsuzdur. Taný genellikle baþka nedenle çekilen bilgisayarlý tomografi veya bronkoskopi ile konur. Bronþial anatominin radyolog tarafýndan tanýnýp ortaya konmasý olasý giriþimsel iþlemlere rehberlik yapmasý açýsýndan önemlidir. Biz de trakeal bronþ tanýsý alan olgumuzu nadir görülmesi nedeniyle, bigisayarlý tomografi bulgularý ile beraber, literatür eþliðinde sunmayý amaçladýk.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Trkeal bronþ, Nadir anomali, Bilgisayarlý tomografi
