Tracheobronchiomegaly. The Mounier-Kuhn syndrome in a patient with the Kenny-Caffey syndrome.

Abstract
A 36-year-old woman with features of both the Mounier-Kuhn syndrome and the Kenny-Caffey syndrome is described. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of these syndromes occurring together. Three-dimensional computed tomographic reconstruction of the upper airway revealed marked dilatation of the trachea and main-stem bronchi and several large diverticulae of the trachea.
