| tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica | <radiology> Osteocartilaginous nodules within submucosa of trachea with or without bronchi, arise from cartilage rings, posterior membranous trachea spared (Differential diagnosis: amyloidosis), incidence debated; 1/3000 in autopsy series, aetiology unknown (carcinoma and P normal), but most accepted theory is an exaggerated response to chronic inhalation of irritants, most cases in adults greater than 50 yrs old (youngest patient age 2 yrs), M:F = 3:1, dyspnea, productive cough, haemoptysis findings: CXR: nodules in trachea with or without calcification, CT: as above, but more sensitive to calcification and better at demonstrating lack of posterior tracheal involvement (12 Dec 1998) |

| tracheoesophageal fistula | A congenital anomaly where the upper oesophagus ends (atresia) and does not connect with the stomach and the lower oesophagus connects to the trachea (tracheoesophageal fistula). A common complication seen shortly after birth is an aspiration pneumonia. Infants will demonstrate excessive salivation, gagging and coughing with feeding, poor feeding and a bluish discolouration to the skin (cyanosis). Treatment involves the surgical repair of the oesophagus before the child can take anything by mouth. (27 Sep 1997) |
| tracheoesophageal puncture | A small opening made by a surgeon between the oesophagus and the trachea. A valve keeps food out of the trachea but lets air into the oesophagus for oesophageal speech. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tracheoesophageal speech | A form of alaryngeal speech obtained by a surgical technique which creates a shunt between trachea and oesophagus, allowing pulmonary air to generate upper oesophageal and pharyngeal mucosal vibrations as a substitute for vocal cord vibrations when the larynx is surgically removed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tracheolaryngeal | Relating to the trachea and the larynx. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tracheomalacia | Degeneration of elastic and connective tissue of the trachea. Origin: tracheo-+ G. Malakia, softness (05 Mar 2000) |
