Tracheal Hodgkin's disease. Report of a case.

A tracheal localization of a Hodgkin's disease is described in a 28-year-old man. The diagnosis was made on a tissue fragment spontaneously emitted and was confirmed by a tracheoscopic biopsy. Radiologic examination revealed adenopathy of the anterosuperior mediastinum, but no other localization. It was not possible to determine whether the tracheal localization was initial or consequent to the mediastinal one. However, Hodgkin's lymphomas of this site have not been previously described.
