  • Title: Slide tracheoplasty for congenital tracheal stenosis with glottic stenosis.
    Author: Rafay MA, Hajjar WM, Essa MA, Mahasin ZZ, Al-Kattan KM.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2004 Sep; 12(3):190-2. PubMed ID: 15353453.
    Abstract:
    A 7-month-old child with respiratory distress was diagnosed to have full-length tracheal stenosis with glottic stenosis. Slide tracheoplasty and anterior cricoid split with stenting for glottic stenosis were successfully performed, and the child has completed 5 years of asymptomatic follow-up. This case widens the scope for slide tracheoplasty, and cricoid split with stenting is a feasible procedure for associated glottic stenosis.
