    Abstract:
    A 27-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital complaining of dyspnea. Bronchoscopic examination revealed an endotracheal mass in the lower trachea. Endoscopic removal of the lesion was done by the electrocoagulation method followed by wide circumferential excision and reconstruction of the trachea three days later. The patient made an uneventful recovery and has had no recurrence in two years of follow-up. The diagnosis of acinic cell carcinoma was made by light microscopy. This is the first description, to our knowledge, of a primary neoplasma of the intrathoracic trachea having the histological appearance of a salivary gland acinic cell tumor.
