Abstract
AbstractThe case of a 46-year-old man who presented with acute respiratory distress due to a tracheal mass is reported. The patient underwent endoscopic resection of the mass and the histopathology revealed scleroma. No other sites of involvement by scleroma were found. This case is reported because laryngotracheal involvement by scleroma as the only manifestation of this disease is extremely rare.
