Abstract
- An elderly gentleman with a chronic cough was found to have a large midtracheal lesion on computed tomography scan. Endotracheal extirpation with an electrocautery snare successfully removed the lesion. Histologic and immunohistochemical analyses revealed the lesion to be a spindle cell lipoma. We provide herein the case presentation and management, the differential diagnosis, and an overview of spindle cell lipoma.
