AB  - The  upper  airways  are  defined  as  the  trachea  and  mainstem  bronchi.  Functionally,  the  upper  airways  serve  as  conduits  for  ventilation.  Anatomically  and  physiologically,  however,  they  represent  complex  structures  that  are  susceptible  to  a  wide  variety  of  processes.  Involvement  of  the  trachea,  mainstem  bronchi,  or  both  in  various  disease  processes,  although  rare,  present  challenging  problems  for  both  physician  and  patient.
