摘要

Tracheal tumours are rare, with an incidence of approximately 0.049 per 100,000 children [1]. Most of them are benign and slow growing, leading to delayed diagnosis. They often present as obstructive airway disease, frequently misdiagnosed as asthma, bronchitis, or pneumonia. Schwannoma of the primary tracheobronchial tree is a rare subset in children. Contrast enhanced Computed tomography (CECT) is crucial for diagnosis and treatment planning, while bronchoscopy aids in tissue diagnosis. Tracheal resection is the preferred treatment for short segment involvement, reducing recurrence chances. Multidisciplinary team approach is essential for good outcome. Continuous monitoring is imperative to detect early recurrence. Endoscopic resection is reserved for high risk cases and carries the risk of recurrence.
