Primary tracheal tumours are histologically similar but 100 times less common than main stem tumours. We report a case of primary tracheal schwannoma in a middle aged man. He had chronic cough for 2 years, and developed hemoptysis and stridor in the days preceding to presentation. He was treated by resection of the tumour and primary anatomosis of the trachea. The patient recovered well after surgery and had a near normal PEFR after one and a half year of follow-up and bronchoscopic examination excluded any recurrence.
原发性气管肿瘤在组织学上相似，但比主支气管肿瘤的发病率低100倍。我们报告一例中年男性原发性气管神经鞘瘤病例。他有2年的慢性咳嗽，在就诊前几天出现咯血和喘鸣。他接受了肿瘤切除及气管原位吻合术治疗。患者术后恢复良好，随访一年半后呼气峰流速接近正常，支气管镜检查排除了任何复发情况。
