Abstract

Tracheal leiomyoma is a rare benign tumor, which is composed of transformed cells of mesenchymal origin. We describe a case in which digital tomosynthesis was useful to evaluate a tracheal tumor that was overlooked on initial chest radiographs.

기관 내 평활근종은 중간엽 세포 유래의 변형된 세포로 구성되어 있다. 초기 흉부 X선 사진에서 간과된 기관 내 종양의 평가에 있어서 디지털 단층촬영술의 유용성을 보여준 기관 내 평활근종의 증례를 보고하고자 한다.
