pubmed-article:3008555 | pubmed:abstractText | Granular cell myoblastoma is an uncommon tumor in the respiratory tract. It usually occurs in the tongue, skin, breast, or subcutaneous tissue. When it occurs in the respiratory tract, it is usually located in the bronchus or larynx. Primary tracheal location is rare with only nine such cases reported in the literature. This report describes a 26-year-old woman with granular cell myoblastoma of the trachea. She presented with a four-year history of bronchial asthma. The tumor was surgically excised by tracheal resection and reconstruction. The patient has remained well and free of obstructive airway symptoms, without recurrence of the tumor for more than one year. | lld:pubmed |
