Abstract
A rare combination of synchronous primary adenocarcinoma of the right upper lobe of the lung and adenoid cystic carcinoma of the subglottic trachea was simultaneously managed by lobectomy with lymph node dissection and sleeve resection of the upper trachea through median sternotomy and cervical collar incisions. This combined approach should be a perfectly acceptable one for synchronous tumors of the proximal trachea and of the right upper and middle lobes and left upper lobe of the lung.
