Abstract
Tracheal diverticulum is a rare clinic entitiy and it’s usually diagnosed as an incidental finding by thoracic computed tomographyor bronchoscopy. We aimed to present the clinic, radiologic, spirometric and bronchoscopic features of seven patients with tracheal diverticulum. The age of patients were ranged 63 and 84 and male to female ratio was 4/3. The tracheal diverticul complications were seen in 4(57.1%) of patients. The expansion, increase in diameter of tracheal diverticulum, was observed in 2(28.5%) patients and tracheal compression was observed in one of them. patients. The infection complication of tracheal diverticulum was observed in 1(14.2%) patient. In conclussion; tracheal diverticulum complications may appear with infection, expansion and tracheal compression, it can called as “complicated tracheal diverticulum”.
