Tóm tắt

The present case report involves a young patient with hemoptysis for several months. A CT chest examination and bronchoscopy revealed the rare finding of squamous cell carcinoma of the trachea. Further diagnostics showed no evidence of lymph node or distant metastasis. Because of the length of the tumor, we performed a median sternotomy and tracheal resection, extending from subglottis to mid-trachea. Carcinoma of the trachea is a rare cause of hemoptysis but should be considered as a differential diagnosis and then presented to an appropriate center with expertise.
