Successful Treatment of Tracheal Stenosis with Slide Tracheoplasty after the Failure of Resection with End-to-End Anastomosis

Successful Treatment of Tracheal Stenosis with Slide Tracheoplasty after the Failure of Resection with End-to-End Anastomosis

The combined effects of inhaled irritant gases and heat in burn patients can result in the development of laryngotracheal strictures. Several factors could adversely affect the development of tracheal stenosis and cause the growth of granulation tissue. Yet the current treatment options for this condition are limited because of the paucity of case reports. We report here on a case of a patient ...

Tracheal resection associated with slide tracheoplasty for long-segment congenital tracheal stenosis involving the carina.

Tracheal resection with end-to-end anastomosis for post-intubation cervical tracheal stenosis: study of 14 cases.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The incidence of acquired laryngeal stenosis is increasing. This retrospective study aimed to assess the long term results of circumferential resection with end-to-end tracheal anastomosis for isolated post-intubation stenosis of the cervical trachea, and to review the relevant literature. METHODS Twelve male and two female patients (aged 16-30 years, mean age 24 yea...

Surgical treatment for patients with tracheal and subgllotic stenosis

  Abstract   Background: Iatrogenic airway injury after endotracheal intubation and tracheotomy   remains a serious clinical problem. In this study we reviewed post-intubation and traumatic tracheal stenosis in 47 patients with a special attention to the cause, hense surgical treatment of the stenosis was performed and the results compared with the literatures.   Methods: Since February 1995 th...

Clinical outcomes of slide tracheoplasty in congenital tracheal stenosis.

OBJECTIVES Treatment of long-segment congenital tracheal stenosis (CTS) remains challenging. Recently, slide tracheoplasty has become the standard approach in many centres. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of slide tracheoplasty. METHODS Between 2004 and 2011, 18 patients underwent slide tracheoplasty in our centre. The median patient age was 2.5 months (range, 18 d...
