The role of T-tubes in the management of airway stenosis† [PDF]
When the T-tube is inserted as a temporary stent, it is unclear whether keeping it longer in place has any benefit on the outcome.Among 1738 patients with airway stenosis (1996-2011), 134 underwent T-tube placement (mean duration = 14.3 months); temporarily while waiting for an appropriate time for surgery in 53 (Group 1), as an adjunct after a complex

Effects of Intubation Duration on Trachea: A Histopathological Study
This study evaluated the histopathological effects of prolonged endotracheal intubation on the human trachea using biopsy specimens obtained during tracheotomy. Prolonged intubation was associated with progressive inflammatory and structural changes, with tracheal dilatation and perichondritis increasing significantly after 14 days.

Evaluating the Local Response of a Novel Injectable Capsule for Drug Delivery in the Trachea
A novel PLGA polymer capsule was developed for localized pretracheal drug delivery and evaluated for short‐term local tissue safety in a rabbit model. Implant placement was confirmed by ultrasound and was well tolerated over 14 days, with preservation of airway patency, native tracheal architecture, and biomechanical properties.

3D Models in the Diagnosis of Subglottic Airway Stenosis [PDF]
Preoperative assessment of benign subglottic stenosis is usually performed by endoscopy and a computed tomography scan. Both diagnostic modalities have relevant limitations and sometimes an accurate assessment of the extent of disease is challenging.Based on computed tomography scans of benign glotto-subglottic stenosis and a control airway, color ...

Global Multidisciplinary Variation in Idiopathic Subglottic Stenosis Surgical Management
This international cross‐sectional survey of 193 clinicians across 42 countries reveals substantial global and multidisciplinary variation in the surgical management of idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS). While endoscopic dilation remains near‐universally utilized, practice patterns differ significantly regarding technical execution, adjuvant ...
