Abstract
A 28-year-old man presented with recurrent pneumonias for 6 years. Che st radiograph and computed tomography showed localized bronchiectasis of the anterior segment of the left upper lobe. Bronchoscopy showed br onchial stenosis without an endobronchial lesion. After 6 weeks of ant ibiotic treatment, the patient had a recurrent pneumonia and underwent left upper lobectomy that showed a solitary squamous papilloma. In si tu hybridization studies of the papilloma were reactive for human papi lloma virus subtypes 6/11.
