Glomus tumors are uncommon. A review of the literature for tracheobronchial glomus tumors revealed 13 tracheal glomus tumors. The diagnosis may be elusive and so the true incidence of tracheobronchial glomus tumors may be greater than that reported. Three of the 14 glomus tumors were initially believed to be carcinoid. Glomus tumors should be included in the differential diagnosis of tracheobronchial tumors.
