Primary tracheal tumor is a disease with low morbidity and poor prognosis. Surgical resection the main treatment. It difficult to treat tumors, while involving reconstruction operations are more complicated. We report case of patient. The large was located above carina opening left bronchus. lumen bronchus significantly narrowed. patient received thoracoscopic-assisted under general anesthesia....

Relevance: Tracheal tumors often do not cause symptoms until they grow to a size that causes significant airway obstruction, which is
 the reason for delay in diagnosis. Diagnosis may also be delayed due non-specific symptoms, such as cough, wheezing, and shortness
 of breath, can occur other conditions asthma chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The appear may
 vary depending ...

A 52-year-old woman with tracheal lesions underwent tracheal resection and carina reconstruction directly because histopathologic diagnosis was not obtained before surgery. Postoperative pathological analysis confirmed a diagnosis of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Subsequently, she suffered serious complications of tracheal stenosis, bronchial stenosis, and tracheoesophageal...

Tracheal stenosis is an uncommon but serious complication of prolonged intubation and tracheostomy patients. Treatment is often provided by otorhinolaryngologists or interventional pulmonologists, but because symptoms may not appear for weeks or months after extubation, primary care physicians are frequently the first to encounter this complication. On presentation, tracheal stenosis may be mis...

The Montgomery tracheal tube (T-tube) is a device used as a combined tracheal stent and airway after laryngotracheoplasty for patients with tracheal stenosis. This device can present various challenges to anesthesiologists during its placement, including the potential for acute loss of the airway, inadequate administration of inhalation agents, and inadequacy of controlled mechanical ventilatio...

Only three primary malignant melanomas have been identified among large series of tracheal resections. Pertinent clinical and histopathologic features of these rare malignancies, however, have rarely been presented. We present the case of a young woman who underwent tracheal resection for a primary malignant melanoma with clinical and histopathologic verification.

BACKGROUND Primary malignant tracheal tumors account for only 0.2 % of all malignancies of the respiratory tract. Tracheal chondrosarcoma is a rare condition and only 17 cases have been described in the literature from 1965 to date. Herein we report the very unusual case of a patient with a tracheal chondrosarcoma, electively treated by curative surgery despite the virtually complete obstructio...
