Abstract
Endobronchial Hodgkin disease (HD) is very rare. We report the case of a women who presented with life-threatening airway obstruction. She was diagnosed with HD 4 years earlier and was in remission after treatment with a combination of chemotherapy and radiation. Bronchoscopy showed a polypoid mass obstructing the tracheal lumen almost completely. The mass was resected using an electrocautery snare loop, providing immediate relief of symptoms. Pathology and staging investigations revealed HD isolated to the trachea. This presentation and treatment is extremely unique for HD.
