    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology
    • Radiology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Broncholithic casts are rare manifestations of respiratory disease.
    • Diagnosis often relies on imaging and clinical presentation.

    Observation:

    • A case involving multiple broncholithic casts is presented.
    • Diagnosis was established through clinical assessment and radiological findings.
    • Histological confirmation was not obtained.

    Findings:

    • Multiple broncholithic casts were observed.
    • Tuberculosis is identified as the probable etiology.
    • The condition was diagnosed non-invasively.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering tuberculosis in cases of broncholithic casts.
    • Emphasizes the utility of clinical and radiological data in diagnosing rare pulmonary conditions.
    • Suggests potential diagnostic challenges due to lack of histological verification.
