摘要：

The side-effects of radiation therapy on the bronchial tree or on the mediastinum are seldom reported. In this setting, we report a case of sclerosing mediastinitis with bronchial stenosis discovered 1 yr after external radiotherapy for lung cancer. The patient was treated with a Dumont stent and has so far had an uneventful further course for up to 42 months. Bronchial stenosis related to mediastinal fibrosis after radiotherapy has not been reported previously.
