Popis: Introduction: Primary malignant tumors of the trachea are rare, but they represent 90% of all tumors of the trachea. The ad- enoid cystic carcinoma is the second most frequent hystologic type of tumor growing in the trachea with aproximately 10 to 15% of all cases. Symptoms are unspecifi c and the most frequent are cough, hoarseness, dyspnea, wheezzing and stridor. Bronchoscopy is the study of choice to obtain tissue for histopathologic study. Surgery is the treatment of choice when possible. Methods: We present the case of a 59 years old female with an adenoid cystic carcinoma of the middle third of the trachea, treated with surgical resection, obtaining a complete resection, with no adyuvant therapy, and with 14 months follow-up without recurrence. Discussion and conclusions: Treatment of adenoid cystic carcinoma should be multidisciplinary. In our patient had forecast a rate of 5-year survival of 91% because it was a localized disease. We consider that patients with any type of tracheal tumor should be referred to a specialized center with experience in the treatment of tracheal pathology.
