  • Title: Optimal Management With Radical Resection of Obstructive Primary Chondrosarcoma of the Trachea.
    Author: Moret A, Glorion M, Gonin F, Longchampt E, Colin C, Mignon F, Sage E, Chapelier A.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2021 Jun; 111(6):e393-e395. PubMed ID: 33347854.
    Abstract:
    We report 2 cases of chondrosarcoma of the trachea. This etiology of tracheal tumors is exceptional, and only a few cases have been reported so far. The optimal management for these 2 cases was challenging. First an interventional bronchoscopy was required for biopsy and to prevent airway obstruction. Second a radical en bloc resection with free margins was performed through a sternotomy in the first case and by a cervicotomy in the second case. Fifty and 6 months after surgery the 2 patients are alive with no local or distant recurrence.
