 AB    We report a 35-year-old HIV-1-positive man who presented with severe
       dyspnea and a nonproductive cough. Three fiberoptic bronchoscopic
       examination revealed an infiltrating and vegetating tracheal mass that
       was diagnosed as necrotizing candidiasis of the trachea. The lesion
       resulted in the formation of a tracheoesophageal fistula that eventually
       led to the death of the patient. Postmortem examination showed
       cytomegalovirus vasculitis in the esophageal wall.
