Surgical Cricothyroidotomy is regarded as an emergency procedure today even though it has a good evidential record as an elective surgical airway. A misunderstanding of Jackson's landmark paper in 1921 has made the simple and safe procedure unpopular because of the fear of subglottic stenosis. We present the incidence of subglottic stenosis after surgical cricothyroidotomy, discuss evidence for...
A best evidence topic in cardiac surgery was written according to a structured protocol. The question addressed was whether subglottic suction is an effective preventative measure for ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) after cardiac surgery. Altogether 457 papers were found using the reported search, of which 13 presented the best evidence to answer the clinical question. The author, journal...
OBJECTIVE To describe our technique and experience of treating adult subglottic stenosis using the Nd:YAG laser through a flexible bronchoscope via a fiberoptic delivery system. DESIGN Retrospective chart review. PATIENTS This study included 16 patients with subglottic stenosis who presented to the senior surgeon (M.R.R.) for laser bronchoscopy from January 2000 to December 2006. MAIN OUT...
A subglottic granuloma is one of the late-phase complications that can occur after intubation. It can cause a life-threatening airway obstruction; therefore, a rapid diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan is necessary. A 62-year-old male had undergone an emergency total arch replacement for acute aortic dissection. Postoperative ventilation support had been performed until the 15th postoperat...
Subglottic stenosis is a complication of Wegener’s granulomatosis caused by tracheal tissue damage and scarring. It may occur as a presenting feature of the disease leading to diagnosis, or instead as a late-stage manifestation. Frequently, it occurs or progresses independently of other features of active disease, and sometimes appears while the general disease is in remission under therapy. Th...
Mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma is usually associated with a chronic inflammatory disease or autoimmune disorders from which lymphoid tissue of MALT type arises as a prerequisite for lymphoma proliferation. Primary hematopoietic neoplasms of the larynx are rare. MALT lymphomas of the larynx are believed to arise from preexisting or acquired lymphoid tissue of the upper airway ...
Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a multi-organ disease which mostly affects lungs, kidney, and head and neck region. We report a rare case of acute laryngeal dyspnea and rapidly progressive pulmonary changes as first manifestations of disease. A 53 year-old woman presented with symptoms of two-week dyspnea, which aggravated rapidly in the preceding hours. Laryngological examination rev...
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE The aim of this study was to describe our early experiences with a novel surgical procedure, "slide thyrocricotracheoplasty," for the treatment of high-grade subglottic stenosis in children. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed in 7 children who underwent slide thyrocricotracheoplasty for high-grade subglottic stenosis from 1996 to 2009. RESULTS Thr...
OBJECTIVE To conduct an endoscopic and histologic analysis of the subglottic effects of various carbon dioxide laser-induced injuries in the rabbit model. DESIGN Animals were assigned to either a control (cricothyroidotomy only) group or 4 (cricothyroidotomy and posterior subglottic laser) groups that were injured using varying systematically controlled carbon dioxide laser power exposures (5...
