Mucoepidermoid Tumor of the Trachea

G. P. Trentini M.D.1 and B. Palmieri M.D.1

1 Institute of Anatomic and Histologic Pathology, University of Modena, Italy

We describe a rare case of mucoepidermoid tumor of the supracarinal region of the trachea in a 25-year-old man, who died three months after resection, following local recurrence of the tumor. On the basis of clinical course and of gross and microscopic examination, the tumor has been classified as a medium-high grade mucoepidermoid tumor. Occurrence of this lesion in the trachea has only been reported once, moreover not in pure form, but in combination with squamous cell carcinoma.
