    Author: Gao CP, Liu JH, Hou F, Liu H, Xu WJ.
    Journal: Skeletal Radiol; 2017 Nov; 46(11):1597-1601. PubMed ID: 28756568.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a 60-year-old man with a 12-day history of vomiting whenever he had a meal. Computed tomography revealed a calcified mass in the right cricoid cartilage with intraluminal and extraluminal extension. The patient underwent surgical resection of the trachea with end-to-end anastomosis. Pathological examination of the surgical specimen showed a low-grade chondrosarcoma. Eighteen months after surgery, the patient is alive and disease-free.
