Core Tip	Primary intratracheal schwannoma is a rare benign airway tumor in adolescents. The presenting symptoms are typically prolonged cough and wheezing. But the anti-asthma treatment was ineffective. Chest computed tomography and bronchoscopy should be performed as soon as possible to clarify the diagnosis. Here we report a 16-year-old female patient with primary intratracheal schwannoma misdiagnosed as severe asthma. This case report is intended to increase awareness for it and help avoid future misdiagnoses by physicians.
