Abstract

An 18-year-old male preferred to our clinic with hemoptysis, cough, dispnea and stridor. A wide-based polypoid tumor that was localized at the right wall of the distal trachea was observed over 3 cm from the carina by flexible bronchoscope. Computerized tomography showed an intraluminal soft tissue density mass in the trachea. Though right thoracotomy, a tracheal resection that contains three rings of the trachea with malignant lesion was performed. Pathologic examination reported a tracheal mucoepidermoid carcinoma. The patient is alive without recurrence three years after surgery.

Özet

Onsekiz yaşındaki erkek hasta hemoptizi, öksürük, dispne ve stridor şikayetleriyle başvurdu. Laboratuuar testleri ve akciğer grafısi normaldi. Fiberoptik bronkoskopla karinanın 3 cm üzerinde trakeaya geniş tabanla bağlı ue lümeni %80'e yakın kapatan polipoid tümör görüldü. Bilgisayarlı tomografi ile trakeada yumuşak doku dansitesi gösteren kitle izlendi. Sağ torakotomi ile malign lezyonu içeren 3 cm'lik trakea halkası çıkarıldı. Histopatolojik olarak mukoepidermoid karsinom tanısı konuldu. Hasta beş yıldır halen asemptomatik olarak kontrol altındadır.
