摘要：
We report a case of primary tracheal tuberculosis that presented with a hard, fixed lymph node in the right supraclavicular fossa, and progressive dysphagia due to an inflammatory mass caused by a tuberculous lesion in the trachea. This case underlines the old adage that tuberculosis is 'the great masquerader'.
