Abstract:
An incidental string-like structure spanning the lumen of the intermediate bronchus was found during bronchoscopy in an 18-year-old woman. We consider that the lesion may be a rare fibrous anomaly of the bronchus and may be closely related to a bronchial web. We have named this unusual structure 'bronchial string'.
