A 45-year-old woman with recurrent dyspnea for 40 years was previously diagnosed with bronchial asthma and spasmodic dysphonia. On admission, the patient was diagnosed with expiratory central airway collapse (ECAC) due to expiratory dynamic airway collapse based on radiographic examination, chest computed tomography, and bronchoscopy. After continuous positive airway pressure and temporal airway stenting, surgical tracheobronchoplasty and tracheal membranous portion reinforcement using polypropylene mesh successfully relieved the respiratory symptoms. In patients with airway obstructive disease refractory to conventional therapies, ECAC should be considered.
