Tracheal pseudocysts are rare benign lesions that can affect individuals of all age groups. In this report, we present a case of tracheal pseudocyst that, to the best of our knowledge, has not been previously reported. A 63-year-old female presented with stridor caused by a cystic mass involving the trachea. The patient underwent cystectomy, and histopathological examination confirmed the presence of a tracheal pseudocyst. Subsequent regular follow-up examinations revealed no recurrence of the lesion.
