Proksimal trakea yerleşimli glomus tümörü: Olgu sunumu

Glomus tümörleri, trakeada nadiren görülen ve genellikle distal kısmın arka duvarından köken alan sık görülmeyen benign tümörlerdir. Trakea yerle- şimli glomus tümörlerinin birçoğu, trakeanın alt kıs- mının üçte ikisini tutar. Bu makalede trakeanın arka duvarının üstten üçüncü kısmında yer alan glomus tümörlü 50 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunul- du. Hastaya transoral endoskopik lazer eksizyon yapıldı. Laringoskopi ve görüntüleme çalışmaları ile değerlendirildiği üzere, ameliyattan sonra 36. ayda tümörün yeniden büyüdüğüne işaret eden herhangi bir bulguya rastlanmadı

Glomus tumor of the proximal trachea: A case report

Glomus tumors are uncommon benign neoplasms, which rarely occur in the trachea, usually originating from the posterior wall of the distal portion. Most of tracheal glomus tumors are located in the lower two thirds of the trachea. In this article, we present a 50-year-old male patient with a glomus tumor located on the upper third of the posterior wall of the trachea. A transoral endoscopic laser excision was performed. No finding suggesting tumoral regrowth at 36 months following surgery was found, as assessed by laryngoscopy and imaging studies.
