Endoscopic Management of a Hypopharyngeal‐Subglottic Fistula: Case Series and Literature Review
A rare complication of prolonged intubation or laryngeal radiation is destruction of the posterior cricoid cartilage with resultant hypopharyngeal‐subglottic fistula leading to aspiration and inability to consume a regular diet. We describe a step‐by‐step endoscopic approach to the closure of a hypopharyngeal‐subglottic fistula.
