Tracheal hemangioma is a very rare benign vascular tumor. Few cases of tracheal hemangioma in children are reported in the literature. Chronic cough is the main symptom of the disease; however, hemoptysis is rarely reported as a symptom of tracheal hemangioma in children. Here, we report a case of tracheal hemangioma in an eight-year-old girl admitted to our pediatric department for recurrent hemoptysis. Routine biological and radiological investigations were normal. Diagnosis was made using computed tomography and bronchoscopy. Beta-blocker therapy was not efficient. Bronchoscopic treatment by electrical excision enables complete recovery. Tracheal hemangioma should be considered a cause of recurrent hemoptysis when routine biological and radiological investigations are negative.
气管血管瘤是一种非常罕见的良性血管肿瘤。文献中报道的儿童气管血管瘤病例很少。慢性咳嗽是该疾病的主要症状；然而，咯血作为儿童气管血管瘤的症状很少被报道。在此，我们报告一例8岁女孩因反复咯血入住我院儿科的气管血管瘤病例。常规生物学和影像学检查均正常。通过计算机断层扫描和支气管镜检查做出诊断。β受体阻滞剂治疗无效。通过电切除进行支气管镜治疗可实现完全康复。当常规生物学和影像学检查结果为阴性时，应考虑气管血管瘤是反复咯血的原因。
