Abstract EN
We describe a case of extramedullary tracheal plasmacytoma that was incidentally discovered in a 73-year-old man on a PET scan performed for assessing the extent of colon cancer.
CT scan showed the tumor; multiplanar reformation coupled with virtual bronchoscopy allowed proper treatment planning.
The tracheal tumor was resected during rigid bronchoscopy.
Relevant investigations excluded multiple myeloma.
Follow-up CT showed persistent thickening of the tracheal wall, but there has been no recurrence after one-year followup.
