A 17-year-old man in whom mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the left upper lobe bronchus was successfully treated by bronchoplasty. The patient has been suffered from relapsing respiratory infections over the past 2 years. Bronchoscopic examination revealed a tumor at the orifice of the left upper lobe bronchus. Thus, left upper sleeve lobectomy was carried out. The tumor was 18 x 15 x 14 mm in size and obstructed left upper bronchus with mucoid impaction peripherally. Hystological examination confirmed a diagnosis of low grade malignant mucoepidermoid carcinoma without lymph node metastasis. The patient has been well and free from recurrence for 4 years postoperatively.
