Abstract
We report two cases of bronchial atresia in a 65-year-old woman and a 74-year-old man. The sites of atresia were the right upper lobe bronchus, which was very rare, and left B^<1+2> respectively. Their chest CT scans showed a pulmonary nodule accompanying peripheral hyperinflation in both cases. We considered the etiology of the bronchial atresia were to be congenital in both cases.
