Penicillium species as a rare isolate in tracheal granulation tissue: a case series

Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2008
Introduction Granulation tissue formation is a major problem complicating the treatment of upper airway stenosis. We present two cases of recurrent tracheal granulation tissue colonisation by Penicillium species in patients undergoing laryngotracheal ...

Geleophysic Dysplasia Associated With FBN1 Mutation: Clinical Course, Valvular Heart Disease, and Response to Recombinant Human Growth Hormone Therapy

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Geleophysic dysplasia (GD) is a rare genetic condition caused by pathogenic variants in either the ADAMTSL2 or FBN1 gene. We present a patient that combined clinical features consistent with GD, including short stature, delayed bone age, progressive congenital heart disease, and a happy, round face.

Acute Multiorgan Failure and Death With Formalin Ingestion: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Formalin, an aqueous solution of formaldehyde, is widely used as a disinfectant and tissue preservative. Intentional ingestion is rare because of its strong odor and highly corrosive properties; however, when it occurs, it can lead to severe metabolic acidosis and multi‐organ failure.

Airway Obstruction Caused by a Giant Cervical Venous Malformation: A Case Report and Multidisciplinary Management

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
We performed endoscopic puncture and subsequent sclerotherapy for the laryngopharyngeal venous malformation. ABSTRACT Giant cervico‐laryngopharyngeal venous malformations are rare vascular anomalies that can cause life‐threatening airway obstruction, posing significant challenges in clinical management.

Inflammatory Markers Stratify Surgical Outcomes in Pediatric Airway Reconstruction

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1920-1927, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives Red blood cell distribution width (RDW) predicts surgical success in adult patients undergoing open airway reconstruction for laryngotracheal stenosis, but similar biomarkers in pediatrics remain unidentified. This study identifies predictors of outcomes in pediatric patients undergoing triple endoscopy or surgical airway ...

A Novel Murine Model of Acute Laryngeal Injury After Intubation

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1784-1791, April 2026.
This study describes a novel murine model of acute laryngeal injury (ALgI) after intubation. Chemomechanical injury was performed to the posterior glottis of adult mice using a bleomycin‐dipped wire brush under endoscopic guidance, resulting in reduced glottic mobility, increased posterior glottic thickness, and increased collagen expression. This safe,

Immunosuppression and Surgery‐Free Interval in Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis Airway Stenosis

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1858-1865, April 2026.
Subglottic and tracheal stenosis are severe manifestations of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) that often require both endoscopic intervention and systemic immunosuppression. Rituximab may help stabilize GPA‐related airway disease by prolonging the interval between endoscopic procedures and delaying relapse.

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

The Laryngoscope, Volume 136, Issue 4, Page 1694-1701, April 2026.
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 ...

Laryngo-tracheal stenosis following endotracheal intubation

Zdravniški Vestnik, 2007
Background: Despite significant improvements in the biocompatibility of materials used for tracheal tubes, laryngeal and tracheal lesions as long-term complications of artificial airways continue to be problematic in patients requiring prolonged airway ...

Revision to Tracheostomy Postcricothyroidotomy is Associated with Increased Rates of Laryngotracheal Stenosis

Journal of Emergencies, Trauma and Shock
Introduction: Cricothyroidotomy establishes an emergency surgical airway, but concerns persist that cricothyroidotomy only (CO) may be associated with higher rates of tracheal stenosis than revision to tracheostomy (RT). We characterized the incidence of
