Stent restenosis, especially the diffuse pattern, has developed into a significant clinical and economical problem. It has been estimated that up to 250,000 patients developed in‐stent restenosis in 2,000 alone, two thirds of them can be expected to have diffuse in‐stent restenosis, which is difficult to treat because of high recurrence rates.

Management of Subglottic Stenosis With the “Maddern Procedure”: Long Term Follow‐Up Outcomes
The Maddern procedure is an effective and durable option for patients with idiopathic subglottic stenosis. Five‐year recurrence‐free rate is 83%, and the mMRC dyspnea scale improves from 2.7 (SD 0.73) to 0.52 (SD 0.85). ABSTRACT Objective Full‐thickness resection and skin grafting of the laryngotracheal junction, the “Maddern Procedure,” can be used to
