title: Unusual clinical presentation of endotracheal mesenchymoma.
abstract: This report describes an unusual case of 35 year old man with endotracheal mesenchymoma. He was treated for two years as asthmoid bronchitis or asthma without any favourable result. The diagnosis was established by x-ray tomography and the patient was referred to the surgical treatment. The tumour was removed and the trachea was reconstructed. Postoperative course was very good. The patient is doing well without recurrence many years following the operation.
