Young survivor of a rare primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma of the trachea

Primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma of the trachea is a very rare tumor. Diagnosis is often missed for a long time because the presentation often resembles that of obstructive airway disease. A 24-year-old non-smoker male presented at an outpatient clinic complaining of gradual development of str...
