“…Even such laryngeal growths rarely present as upper airway obstruction in neonates [7]. Further, a 20-year review by Ferlito et al [8] found only 47 laryngeal malignancies among children and adolescents, twelve of whom were 1 or less years of age. The same group found that rhabdomyosarcoma was the most common malignant tumor.…”

“…The former accounts for 5.8% of all paediatric endobronchial tumors (8) with previous radiation therapy, genetic predisposition and immunological factors as main documented risk factors for its occurrence (9). Leiomyosarcoma is even more sporadic, making up 3.8% of all paediatric forms (8).…”

Although primary tracheobronchial tumors are extremely rare in children, recurrent respiratory symptoms resistant to conventional therapy require further investigations to exclude possible malignant obstructive causes. As the matter of fact, early diagnosis may allow minimally invasive surgeries, improving the standard of living and the globally survival rate. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of diagnosis and management of tracheobronchial tumors in the early age, since only few reports are reported in the worldwide literature.

“…Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) and embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) represent the two main histologic patterns and must be differentiated from other small round cell tumors. RMS is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in the pediatric population, comprising approximately 5% of all childhood cancers and nearly 50% of soft tissue sarcomas arising in children 0 to 14 years of age [Ferlito A et al, 1999]. By contrast, RMS is remarkably uncommon in older adults, representing merely 2-5% of all malignant soft tissue tumors, with the majority being the pleomorphic subtype [Sivanandan R et al, 2004].…”
