[Outcomes of endoscopic balloon dilation laryngoplasty for acquired subglottic stenosis in children].
Year: 2025
Type: other
Abstract: Endoscopic balloon dilation under general anesthesia is deemed safe and effective in treating secondary subglottic stenosis. Early diagnosis coupled with prompt intervention can help avoid tracheotomy procedures altogether. Standard tracheoscopy combined with breathability testing represents a crucial approach to assess normal airway diameter and effectively reduce or prevent secondary subglottic stenosis following re-intubation.
