Case in brief
A patient with multifocal subglottic-tracheal Rosai-Dorfman disease presented with lesions affecting the airway. Surgical resection was performed, leading to a sustained remission lasting 48 months without the need for adjuvant therapy. The case highlights the potential for surgery as a primary treatment option in select patients with resectable multifocal RDD.
Diagnostic / clinical pearl
Surgical resection may be a viable treatment option for select cases of multifocal airway Rosai-Dorfman disease, particularly when lesions are completely resectable and there is no systemic involvement.
