Abstract
Broncholithiasis is the presence of intrabronchial calcification or ossification. We report a case of broncholiths resulting from extrusion of calcified mediastinal lymph node into a bronchus associated with esophagobronchial fistula that became more symptomatic after bronchoscopic removal of the broncholiths.
