Abstract: | Bronchial chondromas are very rare pulmonary benign tumors. Despite their rarity, clinicians should be aware of the possibility of endobronchial tumors in patients with unexplained respiratory symptoms. Treatment modalities for the complete excision of the tumor should be initiated to prevent further complications based on the individual tumor situation. |
