Abstract
We report a case of a glomus tumor in the trachea which was an inciden tal finding in a 66-year-old man. The histological picture and immunoh istochemical profile were typical for this tumor. The glomus tumor is an exceedingly rare mass lesion in the trachea but it is useful to kee p it among differential diagnostic alternatives when a tracheal tumor is seen on radiographs or endoscopy.
