    Diagnosing osteochondroplastic tracheopathy requires biopsy for histological confirmation and etiology, enabling targeted treatment. Early diagnosis in living patients is crucial, as current methods often delay identification until autopsy.

    Area of Science:

    • Respiratory Medicine
    • Pathology
    • Medical Imaging

    Context:

    • Osteochondroplastic tracheopathy is a rare condition affecting the trachea.
    • Diagnosis is frequently delayed, often confirmed post-mortem.
    • Current diagnostic methods like radiology and CT scans provide suspicion, not definitive diagnosis.

    Purpose:

    • To emphasize the critical role of biopsy in diagnosing osteochondroplastic tracheopathy.
    • To highlight the importance of histological confirmation and etiological investigation.
    • To advocate for earlier diagnosis in living patients.

    Summary:

    • This report details the experience with 8 patients diagnosed with osteochondroplastic tracheopathy.
    • Bronchoscopy with biopsy is presented as the definitive diagnostic method.
