CT‐Based Comparison of Tracheostomy Placement Accuracy: Open Versus Percutaneous Approaches

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study provides the first objective CT‐based comparison of tracheostomy placement accuracy between open surgical and percutaneous techniques in 503 patients. Both methods achieved comparable stoma positioning relative to the cricoid cartilage, while patient factors and surgeon expertise had a greater impact on placement accuracy than the surgical ...
