Abstract
Paratracheal lymph-nodal metastases secondary of breast cancer aren't frequent in this kind of cancer. Here is described the case of a 76-years-old woman come to our note for ingravescent dyspnoea caused by metastatic adenopathy compression of the tracheal lumen. After excluding other treatments, a tracheal stent is put on. The obstruction gets better right away, the initial severe respiratory symptoms are improved and the ventilation is almost normal.File in questo prodotto:
