Zusammenfassung:[LANGUAGE= "English"] Background: Endotracheal/endobronchial metastases represent an extremely rare category of diseases, lacking population-based incidence studies. These metastases are generally classified into two types: pulmonary and nonpulmonary. Pulmonary metastases are considerably rarer than their nonpulmonary counterparts.Case Report: We present a rare case of tracheal metastasis, diagnosed during a follow-up two years after the anatomical resection of early-stage lung cancer. This case was successfully treated.Conclusion: Tracheal metastases after lung cancer surgery are exceedingly rare. Patients of-ten exhibit radiological findings before becoming symptomatic. Therefore, bronchoscopic evaluation is recommended when radiological and clinical suspicions arise.
