Abstract:
Extracutaneous glomus tumors are unusual and their occurrence in the trachea has been recognized with extreme rarity. We present a case of surgically resected glomus tumor of the trachea in a 34-year-old man who presented with hemoptysis and who was initially diagnosed as having a carcinoid tumor.
