Abstract

AbstractWe have now used the procedure in 19 patients with high and mid‐tracheal stenosis which measured up to 3‐4 cm in length. Only one recurrent nerve was paralyzed by the surgery. Two patients with severe lung disease expired after surgery from respiratory failure. Three patients restenosed and required replacement of a tracheotomy. The remaining 14 patients have had no evidence of recurrent tracheal stenoses.
