Tracheal Lipoma

Southern Medical Journal, 2000
Primary tracheal lipomas are extremely rare neoplasms. The typical patient is a middle-aged man with complaints of cough and shortness of breath. Often, the diagnosis is delayed, and patients are treated for asthma or bronchitis. The diagnosis of a tracheal lipoma is best approached by computed tomography (CT) and bronchofibroscopy.

Successful cryotherapy of a benign tracheal neoplasm

Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1988
A 10-year-old black male with a 6-month history of progressive dyspnea and stridor was found to have a submucosal mass occupying 75% of the subglottic airway. Biopsy specimens showed a pleomorphic adenoma of minor salivary gland origin--a tumor with a predilection for local recurrence after resection. A tracheostomy was performed for airway control and

Photothermal‐Controllable Microneedles with Antitumor, Antioxidant, Angiogenic, and Chondrogenic Activities to Sequential Eliminate Tracheal Neoplasm and Reconstruct Tracheal Cartilage

Small, 2023
AbstractThe optimal treatment for tracheal tumors necessitates sequential tumor elimination and tracheal cartilage reconstruction. This study introduces an innovative inorganic nanosheet, MnO2/PDA@Cu, comprising manganese dioxide (MnO2) loaded with copper ions (Cu) through in situ polymerization using polydopamine (PDA) as an intermediary. Additionally,

Tracheal and Bronchial Neoplasms

2008
Primary central airway neoplasms are rare. These neoplasms present with symptoms of airway obstruction and hemoptysis. Oftentimes, the diagnosis is delayed because of the late presentation of symptoms. Multidetector CT is the imaging modality of choice for diagnosis, staging, and preoperative planning of central airway tumors.

Tracheal Paraganglioma: An Unusual Neoplasm of the Upper Airway

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2012
Paraganglioma of the trachea is a rare neoplasm, with fewer than 15 cases reported. A 40-year-old man presented with stridor and hemoptysis. Bronchoscopy demonstrated a tumor of the posterior trachea and biopsy initially suggested typical carcinoid. The patient underwent surgical resection uneventfully and made a good recovery.

One Hundred Neodymium–YAG Laser Ablations of Obstructing Tracheal Neoplasms

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1984
Forty patients with obstructing, nonresectable tracheal neoplasms underwent 100 ablations with the neodymium-yttrium-aluminum garnet (YAG) laser. The laser allows bloodless resection and vaporization of tumors. Unlike the carbon dioxide laser, the neodymium-YAG laser can be used with the flexible bronchoscope and has an excellent effect on coagulation.

Noncardiogenic Pulmonary Edema Following Laser Therapy of a Tracheal Neoplasm

Chest, 1989
Nd-YAG laser phototherapy has been demonstrated to be effective for the treatment of airways obstruction caused by tracheal tumors. Pulmonary edema has been reported as a complication following acute relief of an upper airway obstruction. We describe a case where laser photoresection of an endotracheal malignancy resulted in acute pulmonary edema.

Primary Tracheal Malignant Neoplasms: The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center Experience

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2006
Primary malignant neoplasms of the trachea are very rare and data relating to them are limited. This study was conducted to review the presentation, management, and outcomes of primary tracheal cancers at our institution, a large multidisciplinary cancer center.Retrospective chart review was conducted for all patients found to have a pathologic ...

Primary malignant tracheal neoplasms: Case reports and literature radiotherapy review

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1986
AbstractIn contrast to laryngeal or bronchial carcinomas, primary malignant neoplasm of the trachea is rarely encountered. Case reports are presented to emphasize the difficulty in establishing the diagnosis. Disease clinical manifestations, histopathology, and natural history are described.

Primary tracheal neoplasms: recognition, diagnosis and evaluation.

American family physician, 1992
Primary neoplasms of the trachea are much less common than malignancies of the larynx and lungs. Tracheal neoplasms account for less than 0.1 percent of all neoplasms. Their importance lies in the fact that they may initially be misdiagnosed, resulting in a delay in diagnosis ranging from months to years.
