Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD) is a non-malignant condition mainly manifesting as a proliferation of histiocytes in lymph nodes. Endotracheal RDD (ERDD) with an acute onset presentation is extremely rare. There are few case reports of ERDD mainly concerning its pathology, diagnostics and bronchoscopic treatment, without providing sufficient clinical information from a comprehensive perspective. As a novel and challenging technique, tracheal resection and reconstruction (TRR) with spontaneous-ventilation video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (SV-VATS) has been reported as feasible and safe in highly selected patients, but few centres have shared their experience with this approach. This case-based discussion includes not only practical issues in the management of a life-threatening ERDD patient, but also specialists' views on the management of acute obstructive airway, and the surgeons' reflection on TRR with SV-VATS.
