Abstract EN

Plastic bronchitis is the expectoration of bronchial casts in the mold of the tracheobronchial tree.

It is a rare occurrence of unknown etiology that has been primarily described in children with congenital heart disease.

In this case report, we present the first reported case of plastic bronchitis in a patient with pulmonary Kaposi sarcoma and underlying HIV infection.
