Abstract

Histological examination suggested that the specimen resected from our patient was the accessory bronchus, including an accessory lobe with retained secretions. The finding of scar tissue, but no alveoli, on the peripheral accessory lobe suggested that it had been deteriorated or ruptured by constant infection, leading to bronchopneumonia and empyema.
