Tracheal schwannoma mimicking asthma.

Schwannoma in primary neurogenic tumors of the trachea is an extremely rare disease. A 21-year-old male patient with stridor was followed up with a diagnosis of asthma for two years. While no lesion was observed in the chest X-ray, tracheal schwannoma was diagnosed in the case who underwent tracheotomy due to the lesion obstructing the trachea almost completely on chest CT.
