case_images: Chest CT was performed that showed a large polypoid intra-luminal mass arising in the trachea within 1 cm of the larynx, causing obliteration of 70% of the lumen (Figure 2).
case_images: Resected specimen showing a polypoid growth pattern. The tumor was present at 1 cm below the larynx

case_images: An axial (A) and coronal (B) figures shows the dose distribution of the radiation treatment plan. The plan uses five fields (anterior, right anterior oblique, left anterior oblique, right posterior oblique and left posterior oblique). Coloring wires shows the high dose (shown in yellow) and lower doses (shown in green and blue, respectively)
