Inspection bronchoscopy during percutaneous dilational tracheostomy has become the standard of care to reduce complications of the procedure. During bronchoscopy, anatomic defects can be visualized before performing the procedure. We describe a case of discovering herniated tracheal rings in preprocedure bronchoscopy and subsequent treatment of this rare finding.
