Tumours can develop in the trachea, the main airway connecting the throat to the lungs. They are uncommon but can grow slowly before causing breathing symptoms. An MRI may show a mass in or near the trachea consistent with a tumour. Finding a tracheal tumour early may allow for treatment before it causes significant airway obstruction.
