RUA MARIN, Catalina; DIAZ, James; CARDONA, Alejandro e RAMIREZ, Luis Alberto. Traqueomegalia and rheumatoid arthritis. Rev.Colomb.Reumatol. [online]. 2008, vol.15, n.3, pp.207-209. ISSN 0121-8123.
Tracheobronchomegaly is a rare condition of unknown etiology that has been described in association with connective tissue diseases. We present a case of tracheomegaly in a patient with a long evolution rheumatoid arthritis. This is the second case reported in the medical literature until now. Association between these pathologies is uncertain and we can not establish a clear pathophysiological link due to the rarity of its occurrence and the late onset of symptoms.
