Inflammatory Markers Stratify Surgical Outcomes in Pediatric Airway Reconstruction

open access: yesThe 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 ...
