Abstract:
We are reporting a case of unusual presentation of stridor in an adult man, previously labeled as a case of bronchial asthma, who was identified to have an Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of trachea (ACC). This resulted in chronic progressive upper airway obstruction and subsequent airway stridor. Following proper diagnostic workup that includes bronchoscopy and histopathological examination of tissue biopsied, the involved tracheal segment was surgically resected followed by reconstruction and involved field radiotherapy.
