Abstract

It is relatively uncommon for a young patient to have a severe airway blockage. Clinical suspicion of severe endobronchial anatomic alterations is uncommon. In certain situations, bronchoscopy results or radiographic findings are helpful in further assessment. Sarcoidosis, TB, and vasculitides cannot be diagnosed in our case because there is no clinical, radiological, or pathological evidence of these conditions. It is important to identify between benign and malignant tracheobronchial stenosis aetiologies, as well as to take into account the degree of aggression depending on the underlying condition and likelihood of cure. Additionally, it's crucial to take into account whether the obstruction is dynamic (tracheobronchomalacia) or fixed, particularly in the case of benign disease.
