ABSTRACT Three chondromatous hamartomas of the trachea associated with dyspnoea, and a similar lesion of the bronchus associated with coughing, were recognized in four dogs, and diagnosed on radiological and histopathological examination. These benign lesions were surgically removed. The dogs remained well after surgery for periods up to four years.
