Pure endobronchial tumors are rare entities that present a challenge for their diagnosis and therapeutic approach. Due to their rarity, they are little known among primary care physicians and even among more expert physicians, so it’s common that diagnosis is made in advanced stages. Also, there is little available literature, with a paucity in studies with big populations, with evidence published as case reports or the experience of the treating group. The clinical picture is non-specific and variable, according to the degree of obstruction, with a diagnostic approach based on images, especially chest tomography and bronchoscopy, which is the study of choice since it can be diagnostic and therapeutic. The treatment of choice is endoscopic management, with different techniques without evidence of superiority between them o the choice depends on the availability of each one and the expertise of the interventional pulmonologist to perform it.
