Benign mixed tumor of the trachea

Abstract
A case of mixed tumor, salivary gland type, removed by segmental resection of the trachea is reported. Only thirteen acceptable and five probable tracheal mixed tumors have been found in the world literature. The behavior of this variety of tumor in the trachea appears to be similar to its counterpart in other sites and distinctly different from the more frequently encountered epithelial tumors: squamous cell carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma.
