Leiomyosarcoma of the trachea.
A case of primary leiomyosarcoma in the trachea of a 63-year-old woman is presented. Owing to the rare occurrence of this tumour in this site, the clinical diagnosis and pathological classification are difficult. In the English literature, only six cases of primary leiomyosarcoma in the trachea are on record.
