Mounier-Kuhn affects central bronchi
an abnormality of the trachea and main bronchi (tracheobronchomegaly) characterized by atrophy or absence of elastic fibers and thinning of muscle, which allows the trachea and main bronchi to become flaccid and markedly dilated on inspiration, with narrowing or excessive collapse on expiration and cough
The abnormal airway dynamics and pooling of secretions in broad outpouchings, or diverticula, of redundant musculomembranous tissue between the cartilaginous rings predispose patients to the development of chronic pulmonary suppuration, bronchiectasis, emphysema, and pulmonary fibrosis
