We report a tracheal chondrosarcoma in a 54-year-old man, treated with neodymium:yttrium-aluminum garnet laser vaporization via fiberoptic bronchoscopy followed by surgical resection. Chondrosarcomas of the trachea are extremely rare tumors. To our knowledge, there are 9 cases of chondrosarcoma of the trachea reported in the English-language literature, to which we add the tenth.
