We describe a case of extramedullary tracheal plasmacytoma that was incidentally discovered in a 73-year-old man on a PET scan performed for assessing the extent of colon cancer. CT scan showed the tumor; multiplanar reformation coupled with virtual bronchoscopy allowed proper treatment planning. The tracheal tumor was resected during rigid bronchoscopy. Relevant investigations excluded multiple myeloma. Follow-up CT showed persistent thickening of the tracheal wall, but there has been no recurrence after one-year followup.
我们报告一例髓外气管浆细胞瘤,该病例是在一名73岁男性为评估结肠癌范围而进行的PET扫描中偶然发现的。CT扫描显示了肿瘤;多平面重建结合虚拟支气管镜检查有助于进行恰当的治疗规划。在硬质支气管镜检查期间切除了气管肿瘤。相关检查排除了多发性骨髓瘤。随访CT显示气管壁持续增厚,但随访一年后未出现复发。
