Broncholithiasis, an uncommon condition, involves the presence of broncholith in the tracheobronchial tree. Our case involves a 40-year-old female patient presented with a persistent dry cough and low-volume hemoptysis. A CT scan was performed, revealing the presence of endobronchial calcification in the apicodorsal segmental bronchus.
