"Inflammatory pseudotumor" is a broad descriptive term used to describe a localized collection of inflammatory and fibroblastic cells. It is an uncommon lesion that can mimic a tumor when it is located intraluminally in the trachea or bronchi. Because an inflammatory pseudotumor has an abundance of polyclonal plasma cells, its etiology (postinflammatory vs immunologic) is still being debated. We report a new case of inflammatory pseudotumor that arose in the trachea of a 20-year-old man. We also review the histologic and clinical characteristics of this lesion.
“炎性假瘤”是一个宽泛的描述性术语，用于描述炎性细胞和成纤维细胞的局部聚集。它是一种罕见的病变，当位于气管或支气管腔内时可类似肿瘤。由于炎性假瘤有大量多克隆浆细胞，其病因（炎症后性与免疫性）仍存在争议。我们报告一例发生在一名20岁男性气管的炎性假瘤新病例。我们还回顾了该病变的组织学和临床特征。
