Description
Summary:Histological findings associated with ag- gressive behavior, such as recurrence and metastasis, include in- filtrative and poorly circumscribed tumor margin and high mi- totic counts.ls There have been two reports of malignant and aggressive tu- mors.910 Thus, tumors should be considered to have malignant potential and a careful follow-up is mandatory after complete resection, as in our patient's case who is healthy 5 years postop- eratively. Because the tumor rarely occurs, standard manage- ment has not been established. [...]pleomorphic adenoma of the trachea should be included in the differential diagnosis of tracheal tumors, al- though the occurrence is very rare.
