摘要

气管原发性小细胞癌是一种罕见的肿瘤,属于神经内分泌肿瘤。由于其罕见性和症状的不确定性,该肿瘤经常被误诊为其他慢性肺部疾病而延误诊断。在此,我们描述了一名因呼吸困难和咳嗽而就诊的 52 岁男性。他曾因怀疑患有哮喘或支气管炎而接受支气管扩张剂治疗数月,但病情未见好转。全身检查时,他有中心性喘息。胸部 CT 扫描除发现胸腔气管软组织突出外,并无其他异常。支气管镜检查发现一个巨大的外生肿瘤。活检标本显示为气管小细胞癌。患者在接受支气管镜检查后不久,在接受任何治疗之前就因病去世了。我们努力通过本病例报告提高人们对这种罕见肿瘤的认识,因为延误诊断可能导致严重并发症,甚至死亡。

Tracheal Small Cell Carcinoma in a 52-year-old Male: A Case Report.

Primary small cell carcinoma of the trachea is a rare tumor fitting in the spectrum of neuroendocrine tumors. Due to the rarity and unspecific symptoms, the tumor is frequently misdiagnosed with other chronic lung diseases, and diagnosis is delayed. Here, we described a 52-year-old male presenting with dyspnea and cough. He had been treated with bronchodilators for months for suspected asthma or bronchiolitis without improvement. He had central wheezing on the general examination. Chest CT scan was unremarkable except for soft tissue prominence in the thoracic trachea. A large exophytic tumor was observed on bronchoscopy. A biopsy specimen was taken and revealed small cell carcinoma of the trachea. The patient succumbed to illness a short time after the bronchoscopy and before receiving any treatment. Our effort through this case report was to raise awareness of this rare tumor since a delay in diagnosis could lead to serious complications and even death.
