Tracheal meandering may predict prognosis in idiopathic pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis: a retrospective observational study

Abstract In cases of progressive idiopathic pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (iPPFE), the entire lung is suspended above the thorax. This causes the tracheal bifurcation to elevate upward and the trachea to meander. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between tracheal meandering a...
