  • Title: Subglottic stenosis: evaluation and management.
    Author: Brodner DC, Guarisco JL.
    Journal: J La State Med Soc; 1999 Apr; 151(4):159-64. PubMed ID: 10234887.
    Abstract:
    Surgical correction of subglottic stenosis aims to provide an adequately enlarged lumen while preserving vocal quality and airway protection. Treatment success is predicted upon a thorough preoperative evaluation and tailoring the repair to address the severity and location of the individual lesion. Understanding the complex pathophysiology of subglottic stenosis along with the wide variety of available surgical options will aid the surgeon in achieving a successful outcome.
