A 54-year-old woman presented with dry cough for 3 months. An FDG PET/CT was performed to evaluate a tracheal nodule, which was revealed by chest CT. The PET/CT images showed increased FDG uptake with SUVmax of 3.3 in the known tracheal lesion. The results of pathological examination from the specimen of bronchoscopy were consistent with tracheal mucoepidermoid carcinoma.
