Primitive neuroectodermal tumors (PNET) are aggressive neoplasms of neuroectodermal origin. Although they are known to arise in a host of locations, involvement of the trachea has rarely been reported. We describe an adolescent girl who presented with stridor and was diagnosed with PNET of the trachea. She is in remission following treatment with combination chemotherapy and local radiotherapy.
原始神经外胚层肿瘤(PNET)是起源于神经外胚层的侵袭性肿瘤。尽管已知它们可发生于许多部位,但气管受累的情况鲜有报道。我们描述了一名出现喘鸣症状并被诊断为气管PNET的青春期女孩。她在接受联合化疗和局部放疗后病情缓解。
