Introduction: Idiopathic subglottic tracheal stenosis is a rare inflammatory disease of the trachea; most commonly affects females within the age range of 20-50 years.

متن کاملIdiopathic subglottic stenosis: an evolving therapeutic algorithm.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Idiopathic subglottic stenosis (ISS) is a rare type of airway stenosis of unclear etiology. Open resection, while effective, remains a complex surgery and requires a hospital stay. Endoscopic management is often preferred but has historically been associated with a high recurrence rate.
