A case of malignant melanotic schwannoma arising in the right upper lobe bronchus of a 27 year old man is presented. Tumours of this type most commonly occur in spinal nerve roots and are generally considered to be benign. The behaviour of those originating elsewhere is less predictable. As far as we are aware this is the first reported case affecting the respiratory tract.

本文报告了一例发生在一名27岁男性右上叶支气管的恶性黑色素性神经鞘瘤。这类肿瘤最常发生于脊神经根，一般被认为是良性的。起源于其他部位的肿瘤行为则较难预测。据我们所知，这是首例报道的累及呼吸道的病例。
