Successful immediate cryorecanalization of a simultaneous high-grade tracheal and bronchial stenosis as rare manifestations of bronchial-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma Christian Schumann, MD, Philipp M. Lepper, MD, Thomas F.E. Barth, MD, Peter Möller, MD, Stefan Krüger, MD The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery Volume 137, Issue 1, Pages e17-e19 (January 2009) DOI: 10.1016/j.jtcvs.2008.02.043 Copyright © 2009 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Lung function, chest computed tomographic scan, and bronchoscopic view of the stenosis. A and B, Flow–volume loop shows decreased peak expiratory flow and body plethysmography shows an abnormal resistance loop. C and D, Axial view of chest computed tomographic scan shows high-grade midtracheal stenosis and midgrade stenosis of the right main bronchus. E and F, Bronchoscopy reveales tumorous manifestations in the trachea and the right main bronchus.

Figure 2 Morphology and immunohistochemistry of the BALT lymphoma. A, The lymphoma shows a diffuse growth pattern within the bronchus mucosa (bar = 500 μm) and consists of small lymphoma cells (see inset: bar = 50 μm). B, The lymphoma cells are strongly CD20-positive and are also visible within the respiratory epithelium (bar = 100 μm). C: The proliferation rate is low. Ki-67 staining marked only some nuclei (bar = 200 μm).
