  • Title: [Late results of tracheal resection (author's transl)].
    Author: Moritz E, Schlick W.
    Journal: Wien Klin Wochenschr; 1979 Feb 02; 91(3):97-101. PubMed ID: 425529.
    Abstract:
    17 cases of tracheal stenosis following prolonged endotracheal intubation are reported. Resection of the stenotic segment and anastomosis were performed in all patients. The clinical result was classified as good in 15 patients and as satisfactory in one patient. One patient died from wound dehiscence and mediastinitis. Results of pre- and postoperative respiratory function tests are presented and the validity of these tests for objective evaluation of operative results is discussed. Diagnostically most informative is the quantitative and qualitative evaluation of airway resistance and MEFV curves.
