Tracheal Lymphoepithelioma-like Carcinoma: A Case Report
Lymphoepithelioma like carcinoma is rare in locations other than
nasopharynx. We report the second case of this tumour in trachea, in a
young female patient, who was managed with concomitent surgery,
radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The patient is disease free in the
one-year follow up. The tumour presented difficulties during intubation
for general anaesthesia and during surgery. Association with
Epstein-Barr virus was not found in our case
