Total cricoidectomy and laryngotracheal reconstruction for subglottic stenosis with glottic involvement.

چکیده
We present a case of subglottic stenosis involving the glottis with inflammatory destruction of the cricoid cartilage after prolonged endotracheal intubation. Total cricoidectomy and laryngotracheal anastomosis were performed with T-tube placement that was retained for five months postoperatively. After decannulation of the T-tube, the airway was well restored, with good vocal cord opening. Good respiratory and phonatory results were obtained during normal daily activity, although a slightly hoarse voice was present, but no aspiration was observed. Total cricoidectomy and laryngotracheal reconstruction may be considered suitable for subglottic stenosis with glottic involvement, if accompanied by inflammatory destruction of the cricoid cartilage.

Neonatal subglottic stenosis still remains a substantial challenge for paediatric ENT surgeons.

INTRODUCTION In recent decades, airway reconstruction has become the treatment of choice for subglottic stenosis (SGS) in children, which is performed in either single or multiple stages. However, there is evidence in the literature that single-stage surgery is more effective. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the success rate of single-stage laryngotracheoplasty (LTP) and cricotracheal resection (CTR)...
متن کاملSurgery for pediatric subglottic stenosis: disease-specific outcomes.
To set the foundation to develop a disease-based, operation-specific model to predict the outcome of pediatric airway reconstruction surgery, we performed a retrospective database review of children operated on at a single, tertiary-care children's hospital. Over the 12-year period 1988 to 2000, a total of 1,296 airway reconstruction procedures were performed. Out of these, charts were identifi...

Introduction: Laryngotracheal stenosis can be caused after traumatic injuries to the neck from the subglottic larynx to the trachea. Patients with laryngotracheal stenosis often need a tracheotomy and occasionally may become tracheotomy dependent. Different procedures have been described for the management of these lesions. Management options include techniques of endoscopic dilation, laser res...
