ings of the right lower and right middle lobe bronchi (Fig. 1). The mass was about 1 cm in diameter with a capsule and a marked vascular pattern.
The trachea and main bronchi have U-shaped cartilage linked posteriorly by smooth muscle. Lobar bronchi supply the three right and two left lung lobes and divide to give segmental bronchi (generations 3 and 4).
