  • Description                                          
    • * Trachea divides into right and left main bronchus at the level of sternal angle.
    • * Is shorter, wider, and more vertical than the left main bronchus; therefore, more foreign bodies that enter through the trachea are lodged in this bronchus.
    • * Right bronchus makes an angle of 25° with tracheal bifurcation.
    • * Runs under the arch of the azygos vein, divides into three lobar bronchi, and finally into 10 segmental bronchi.
