We report the case of tracheal neoplasm with sucessful result. The first symptoms may be shortness of breath, persistent cough and consequently is hemoptysis. Wheezing and stridor are often occurring. Fibroptic bronchoscopy is important in diagnosing and assessing the extent of the endotracheal lesion. The intubation would be introduced below the site of lesion and through operative field in Vietnamse condition with limited equipment. In the case of lesion less than 3 cm, you can resect lesions and then reconstruct the trachea with end -to-end anastomosis without any other technique
Tracheal Neoplasms

Glomus tumor is a distinctive type of perivascular tumor whose cell type is a modified smooth cell that closely resembles the glomus body, and this is where the tumor's name is derived. This kind of neoplasm is a benign and rather uncommon neoplasm that can be found in any part of the body, yet it is most commonly seen in the subungual area. Glomus tumor of the trachea is extremely rare. We present the clinicopathologic findings of a resected glomus tumor of the trachea along with a review of the related literature.

A 63-year-old male patient, with 5 years history of progressive dyspnea and aggravation for 1 year, was hospitalized in our hospital; and there was a slight cough, but no cough phlegm, chest pain, hemoptysis or hoarseness. Physical examination showed that there was a third-degree respiratory distress, obvious three depression sign, but no mass in the neck. Electronic laryngoscopy examination reported a mulberry-like mass in trachea about 1.5cm from the glottis. The tumor occupied 90% range of lumen with its base close to the anterior wall of trachea,and tumor could move up and down with cough airflow. After hospitalization, this patient received intratracheal tumor resection under local anesthesia, and postoperative pathology report showed endotracheal papillomatosis, covered by ciliated columnar epithelium.

Tracheal neurilemoma, an extremely rare benign tracheal tumor that there has been only one case reported in 1996 throughout the nation, is a slowly progressing disease that obliterates the upper airway, delays diagnosis for its symptom similarity to asthma, and makes intubation for operation difficult. Bronchoscopic is therefore needed for diagnosis. There are two options for the treatment methods, a bronchoscopic resection or open surgical resection; however if intubation is difficult, then the bronchoscopic resection is used first to keep the airway open for the surgical resection. In this case, the severe tracheal stenosis impeding intubation made the surgical resection of the primary tracheal neurilemoma with extratracheal mass impossible; therefore, bronchoscopic laser resection was applied first to optain the airway passage for endotracheal intubation, followed by a successful open surgical resection.

Benign tumors of the trachea are rare and are usually misdiagnosed as bronchial asthma because of the similarity of the symptoms and signs. Although the prognosis of neurofibroma which originats from Schwann cells is good, it may recur or undergo malignant change, so segmental resection of the trachea is recommended. Recently, we experienced a case of primary neurofibroma of the trachea treated successfully by segmental resection of the trachea and end-to-end anastomosis. We report it with a brief review of literatures.

Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is an uncommon benign disease of an unknown etiology and it affects the cartilaginous walls of large airways. Most cases of TO have been reported to involve the lower two-thirds of the trachea and the proximal bronchi. Unlike the usual cases of TO, exclusive bronchial involvement and the formation of a solitary mass are very rare. We experienced an unusual case that had exclusive bronchial involvement and the formation of a solitary mass and this all mimicked lung malignancy. After surgical resection, we were finally able to diagnose the mass as bronchopathia osteochondroplastica.

Benign tumors of the trachea are rare, accounting for approximately 10% of all primary tracheal neoplasms. They are frequently misdiagnosed and managed as bronchial asthma or chronic bronchitis. We report a lipoma and a leiomyoma of the trachea with emphasis on the clinical, radiographic and CT findings, and review the literature.
