Popis: | Background Tracheal chondrosarcoma is an extremely rare, slow-growing, malignant tumour. This study aims to analyze the cases of tracheal chondrosarcoma published in the literature and our case report, in order to better define tracheal chondrosarcoma management. Methods A systematic review of the English literature was carried out for fully described tracheal chondrosarcoma cases. Additionally, we reported a new case of a 58-year-old man undergoing tracheal resection and reconstruction for tracheal chondrosarcoma. Results To date, 30 cases were published. This tumour predominantly involved male patients (93%; median age: 65 years), generally conditioning dyspnoea and cough. Most of the patients underwent tracheal resection with end-to-end anastomosis, without recurrence (median follow-up: 2 years). Tumour endoscopically treated recurred in half cases. Conclusion Tracheal resection is the treatment of choice for chondrosarcoma, with an excellent prognosis. Endoscopic treatment and/or radiotherapy should be indicated for patients unfit for surgery. |
