Large airway tumors are uncommon, accounting for about 0.6% of all pulmonary tumors [[1], [2], [3]]. The majority of these tumors (80-90%) are malignant, represented primarily by squamous cell carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma [2,4]. Benign central airway tumors are less common and are generally comprised of hamartomas and papillomas. Tracheobronchial leiomyomas are exceedingly rare, representing only about 0.6% of all benign lung neoplasms [3]. We report here on a case of primary endobronchial leiomyoma without uterine involvement treated successfully with cryoresection with excellent outcome.
大气道肿瘤并不常见,约占所有肺部肿瘤的0.6% [[1], [2], [3]]。这些肿瘤中的大多数(80 - 90%)是恶性的,主要表现为鳞状细胞癌和腺样囊性癌 [2,4]。良性中央气道肿瘤较少见,通常由错构瘤和乳头状瘤组成。气管支气管平滑肌瘤极其罕见,仅占所有良性肺肿瘤的约0.6% [3]。我们在此报告一例原发性支气管内平滑肌瘤,无子宫受累,经冷冻切除术成功治疗,效果极佳。
