Tracheomalacia and Tracheobronchomalacia in Pediatrics: An Overview of Evaluation, Medical Management, and Surgical Treatment

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2019
Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) refers to airway collapse due to typically excessive posterior membrane intrusion and often associated with anterior cartilage compression.

Successful Management of Acquired Tracheomalacia of Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Report of Three Cases [PDF]

Annals of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2018
Tracheomalacia is characterized by weakness of the tracheal walls and supporting cartilage. It results in dynamic compression of the airway, where the cross-sectional area of the trachea is reduced by expiratory compression.

Outcome of primary posterior tracheopexy in thoracoscopically repaired esophageal atresia neonates with tracheomalacia; single center's experience

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Open, 2023
Background: Tracheomalacia frequently develops in esophageal atresia patients (EA) especially in those with tracheoesophageal fistula (TEF). Conservative management has been the standard treatment; however, it was reported that delay in management could ...

Undiagnosed tracheomalacia accompanied with accidental expiratory central airway collapse after tracheal intubation

Acute Medicine & Surgery, 2021
Background A patient with undiagnosed tracheomalacia undergoing surgery experienced accidental expiratory central airway collapse after tracheal intubation. Here, we aimed to diagnose tracheomalacia from the preoperative data. Case Presentation A 73‐year‐

Case Report: Sedation crisis caused by drug-induced sleep endoscopy in a pediatric patient with symptomatic multilevel airway obstruction [PDF]

Frontiers in Pediatrics
BackgroundUnexplained life-threatening events during pediatric sedation examinations are a major clinical challenge. Drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) enables dynamic assessment of the site, severity, and pattern of airway collapse by simulating sleep ...

Respiratory sound analysis in a rabbit tracheomalacia model [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Tracheomalacia, which softens the tracheal wall and leads to airway collapse during breathing, can be challenging to detect, especially in children, due to its vague symptoms and the invasive nature of standard diagnostic procedures.

Novel Extraluminal silicone tracheal stent: Development and evaluation in a rabbit model of tracheomalacia [PDF]

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine
Tracheal collapse (TC), defined by excessive tracheal collapsibility, often results in severe respiratory distress in small‐breed dogs. Surgical intervention, including the placement of extraluminal stents, has been employed as a treatment option.

Continuous bronchoscopy during exercise in a pediatric patient: A case report [PDF]

Physiological Reports
Exercise‐induced respiratory symptoms limit physical activity and sport performance in adolescents. Etiologies include exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction, laryngeal obstruction, dysfunctional breathing, and in rarer cases, large airway obstruction and ...

Endoscopically Applied Biodegradable Stent in a Rabbit Model of Pediatric Tracheomalacia [PDF]

Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2021
Objectives A polydioxanone (PDO) stent was developed to treat tracheomalacia in pediatric patients. However, its safety and efficacy need to be verified in animal studies before clinical trials in patients can be conducted.

Tracheobronchoplasty for tracheomalacia [PDF]

Annals of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2018
Tracheobronchomalacia is an uncommon acquired disorder of the central airways. Common symptoms include dyspnea, constant coughing, inability to raise secretions and recurrent respiratory infections. Evaluation includes an inspiratory-expiratory chest computed tomography (dynamic CT), an awake functional bronchoscopy and pulmonary function studies ...
