We report the case of a glomus tumor originating in the left main bronchus diagnosed in a 79 year old Caucasian man. A glomus tumor is an extremely rare neoplasm in the bronchi with nonspecific clinical features. Bronchoscopy allows the diagnosis through biopsy and subsequent histopathological examination of the tissue and in selected cases may represent a valid alternative to surgery permitting a radical tumor excision.

Carcinoid tumors are rare malignant neoplasms of the respiratory system. They belong to neuroendocrine tumors with a low degree of (G1, G2) malignancy. Even less common is the primary multiplicity of these tumors in the trachea and bronchi, which can complicate the only radical, surgical treatment. We present an observation of a 75-year-old patient who was able to diagnose a carcinoid of the cervical trachea and left main bronchus in a timely manner, determine the exact localization and prevalence of the tumor, and successfully conduct surgical treatment in 2 stages.
