Endobronchial cancer are characterized by small size, slow growth and usually misdiagnosed as asthma or chronic bronchitis due to their common symptoms. These cancers are usually benign and rare. Due to these reasons, they may remain undiagnosed for a long time and lead to serious complications. The term bronchial adenoma encompasses a diverse group of tumors of mucous glands, trachea or bronchi. Common symptoms of endobronchial cancer include difficulty in breathing (dyspnea), wheezing due to obstructed windpipe, cough and in some cases fever. Cigarette smoking and alcohol addiction have been found to be in close association of endobronchial cancer. Scientists also suggest that various lung cancer cases have shown endobronchial metastases.

The cancer is diagnosed through various radiology tests such as X-ray, computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Octreotide scan, also known as somatostatin receptor scintigraphy, is also used for diagnosis of endobronchial cancer. It is a non-invasive diagnostic method used to detect presence of tumor cells. Bronchoscopy is a routine method to visualize cancer growth. A bronchoscope is a thing flexible tube which possesses a camera at its tip. A clear image of the cancer and its progression can be obtained through bronchoscopy method. Tissue biopsy by endoscopic methods also helps in gaining more insight to cancer type and its further assessment.

Surgical removal of the cancer can be done through open lung surgeries or endoscopic methods. Although choice depends on size and nature of the tumor. Small and localized tumor can be excised through bronchoscopic surgeries. Certain tumors can also be ablated through laser treatment. This method is usually accompanies with chemotherapy, as there are chances of cancer relapse.
