Abstract：Objective To observe and analyze retrospectively the clinical characteristics,diseased region,the incidence rate of different subtypes of tracheobronchial tuberculosis in order to increase the realization of clinical doctors for the disease.Methods The data about 478 patients with active tuberculosis complicated by tracheobronchial tuberculosis who were admitted and treated in our hospital from June 2013 to May 2016 were retrospectively analyzed to statistically analyze the clinical characteristics,diseased region and the incidence rate of different subtypes of tracheobronchial tuberculosis.Results The statistical analysis showed that sex ratio of tracheobronchial tuberculosis was 1:1.93,with average age being (36.22 ± 14.24) years.The inflammatory infiltration type accounted for 54.81％,and mixed subtype (more than two subtypes) accounted for 40.59％.The proportion of tuberculosis involving bronchus lobaris superior sinister was 42.47％,and the one involving bronchus lobaris superior dexter was 39.12％.Conclusion The female patients with tracheobronchial tuberculosis are more than male patients,moreover,majority of patients are young adults.The inflammatory infiltration type is more common,with multiple pattern changes overlap.The tracheobronchial tuberculosis is often involved in multiple bronchus,and the most invasion region is two upper lobe bronchus,next one is bronchus lobaris inferior sinister.
