Abstract
We describe a unique case of an osteoblastoma in the cricoid cartilage of a 50-year-old man who presented with hoarseness and progressive dyspnea. Panendoscopic examination revealed a reddish tumor at the left side of the cricoid cartilage. Computed tomography (CT) imaging showed a sclerotic lesion involving the cricoid cartilage, protruding in the airway lumen. The tumor was removed via an external procedure. Histology confirmed the diagnosis of osteoblastoma.Entities:
