Clinical effectiveness of treating laryngotracheal stenosis with free hyoid bone reconstruction of the cricoid cartilage: A case series
International Journal of Pediatric Otorhinolaryngology(2022)
Abstract
We reported the free hyoid bone reconstruction of the cricoid cartilage to treat LTS in children. This retrospective case series study included LTS children who underwent hyoid bone separation and T tube implantation. Thirty-four children were included. Twenty-five children were with good outcomes after free hyoid bone reconstruction of the cricoid cartilage. Specifically, the cure rate was 92.8% for the children with mixed stenosis, followed by 63.6% in children with glottis stenosis and 55.6% in children with subglottic stenosis. Free hyoid bone reconstruction of the cricoid cartilage for the management of LTS is feasible, with good outcomes and few complications.
