title: Chronic lithoptysis with multiple bilateral broncholiths.
abstract: A case of chronic lithoptysis with unusual features was undiagnosed for 20 years. The presence of multiple broncholiths in different segments of both lungs, not previously described, was confirmed endoscopically. Areas of unusual mucosal punctate calcifications, not appreciated on concurrent high-resolution CT scan, also are described.
