J Voice. 2002 Dec;16(4):587-91. doi: 10.1016/s0892-1997(02)00134-0.

Abstract

Chondromata of the trachea occur rarely. There are only 10 prior case reports in the literature, all of which have been of unifocal chondromata. We present the first case report, to our knowledge, of multifocal tracheal chondromata in a patient with laryngopharyngeal reflux. Evaluation, diagnosis, and management are discussed.
