A case of tracheobronchial amyloidosis treated with endoscopic debulking and external beam radiation therapy.

We report on a 55-year-old patient who was admitted to hospital because of recurrent pneumonia. CT imaging provided airway narrowing and mural thickening of the distal trachea and mainstem bronchi, compatible with endobronchial polypoid, toric-shaped changes of the distal tracheal wall spreading into both the left and right bronchial system. Bronchoscopy was performed and biopsies revealed the diagnosis of tracheobronchial amyloidosis. We performed a combination of bronchoscopic debulking and consecutive external beam radiation therapy with the result of no further progression of the disease, stable endobronchial situation, and functional improvements at a follow up at 6 months.
