Radiation‐Induced Tracheal Chondroradionecrosis: Bronchoscopic Diagnosis and Intralesional Triamcinolone Management

Radiation-induced tracheal chondroradionecrosis is a rare, life-threatening complication presenting with circumferential exposed cartilage. Bronchoscopic identification, avoidance of thermal modalities, intralesional triamcinolone injection at viable-necrotic mucosal margins, and hyperbaric oxygen referral represent a practical management strategy when surgical intervention is unavailable.
