    Abstract:
    The data on diagnosis and treatment of 200 patients with acute postintubation laryngostenosis (LS) and tracheostenosis (TS) are reviewed. Peculiarities of tracheostomy technique practiced in critical care units are specified. Postintubation and posttracheostomy alterations in the larynx and trachea detected endoscopically are described. Effective endosurgical methods are proposed to avoid multistage surgical rehabilitation for recovery of the respiration function in 97% LS and TS patients.
