Background. Although pleomorphic adenoma is a common type of tumor of the salivary glands, tracheobronchial pleomorphic adenoma is extremely rare. We herein report a case of tracheal pleomorphic adenoma treated with bronchoscopic electrosurgical snaring and argon plasma coagulation. Case. A 65-year-old man visited a medical clinic for treatment of a frequent cough. A subsequent CT scan revealed a tracheal tumor, and a bronchoscopic examination showed a lobulated tumor with a yellowish-white, smooth surface and capillary dilatation located approximately 4 cm under the glottis. The lesion which was diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma based on a pathological analysis and resected with high-frequency electrocautery and argon plasma coagulation. No evidence of recurrence was detected for one year and six months after therapy. Conclusions. We herein report a case of tracheal pleomorphic adenoma treated with bronchoscopic electrosurgical snaring and argon plasma coagulation.
