[Surgical treatment of laryngotracheal cicatricial stenoses].

An analysis of results of 18 laryngotracheal resections in patients after prolonged artificial pulmonary ventilation with circular, A-shaped or mixed forms of stenosis has shown that one-stage sleeve resection of the larynx below the glottis and upper third of the trachea with the formation of primary anastomosis is possible without placing a stent when they have cicatricial lesion. In patients with laryngotracheal stenosis the sleeve laryngotracheal resection is recommended with primary thyrocricoid tracheal anastomosis as a comparatively safe and effective reconstructive operation giving good immediate and long-term results.
