Abstract

ĮvadasGerybiniai kvėpavimo takų fibroepiteliniai polipai yra labai reti.Klinikinis atvejis Keturiasdešimt dvejų metų vyras atvyko į ligoninę skųsdamasis kosuliu ir dusuliu. Atlikus kompiuterinę krūtinės ląstos tomografiją, nustatytas apvalus, lygus navikas vidurinėje trachėjos dalyje. Navikas sėkmingai pašalintas endoskopiškai, naudojant elektrokoaguliacijos kilpą. Pooperacinis laikotarpis buvo sklandus, ligonio būklė puiki. Histologinio tyrimo išvada – fibroepitelinis polipas – reta gerybinė trachėjos liga.IšvadosEndobronchinė elektrochirurgija yra saugus ir veiksmingas gydymo metodas. Gydytojai visada turėtų įtarti tracheobronchinio naviko galimybę.

Highlights

  • Benign fibroepithelial polyps of the respiratory tract are rare among all benign endobronchial lesions and compose less than 2% of all pulmonary tumors

  • A tracheal fibroepithelial polyp is a very rare benign tracheal lesion, and was described in the literature only 5 times [1]. This polyp is more common in deeper parts of the respiratory tract, i.e. in the main bronchi or segmental bronchi [2, 3]

  • We wanted to share our case, because it was among the largest fibroepithelial tracheal polyps in diameter, and was unrecognized for a long time – about one year

Summary

Background

Benign fibroepithelial polyps of respiratory tract are very rare. Case report A 42-year-old man was admitted to our hospital suffering from cough and dyspnea. The CT scan of the thorax revealed a round, smooth tumor in the middle part of the trachea. The tumor was successfully removed endoscopically using an electrocautery snare. The postoperative period was uneventful; patient‘s condition was perfect. Histology showed a fibroepithelial polyp – a rare benign lesion of the trachea
