    Abstract:
    Twenty-four cases of primary tumour of trachea are reported in this article. In the 23 operated cases, 19 received curative excision (82.6%) and 4 cases palliative excision with tracheostomy. In these 24 cases, 21 cases were malignant and 3 cases benign. Tumour located at upper trachea in 8 cases, at median trachea in 6 cases and at lower trachea in 10 cases. The 19 operated patients all recovered. The survival rates in 1, 3, 5 and 10 years were 82.3% (14/17), 75% (9/12), 75% (6/8) and 50% (2/4), respectively. The authors suggested that early diagnosis should be paid more attention because misdiagnosis rate was high. The operation condition and procedures are discussed.
