Abstract

Tracheal stenosis is one of the late complications of inhalation injury. While tracheal stenosis is usually mild and asymptomatic, it sometimes appears as a severe fixed or dynamic airway obstruction [1]. Although tracheal stenosis in burns can be critical, the treatment remains undefined. We present a case of severe tracheal stenosis complicated by subglottic stenosis after inhalation injury, which we treated successfully with silicone stent placement through a tracheostomy port.
