AbstractA young woman was admitted with respiratory failure. Prior to her admission, she had been treated for clinical bronchial asthma for about 2 years for recurrent wheezing. Endotracheal intubation was difficult. A fibroptic bronchoscopy, while the patient was ventilated, revealed a central tracheal tumour compromising >90% of the tracheal lumen. The tumour was cored out during rigid bronchoscopy while ventilating the patient through tracheostomy. Histopathology of the tumour was suggestive of adenoid cystic carcinoma.
