title: Computed tomography correlation of airway disease with bronchoscopy: part I--nonneoplastic large airway diseases.
abstract: To illustrate and describe computed tomographic large airway pathology and correlate with fiberoptic bronchoscopy findings. Commonly encountered diseases of the large airway include tracheobronchial amyloidosis, tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica, tracheobronchomegaly, laryngotracheobronchial papillomatosis, relapsing polychondritis, Wegener granulomatosis, sarcoidosis, and tracheal stenosis. Computed tomography manifestations and bronchoscopic findings of these selected large airway diseases are discussed.
