Voice and Airway Outcomes of Montgomery T-tube Placement in Laryngotracheal Stenosis

Montgomery T-tube placement improves voice in patients with severe dysphonia secondary to laryngotracheal stenosis with and without glottal involvement though the degree of improvement is greater in patients without glottal involvement. T-tube can help reestablish long-term laryngotracheal continuity in patients with no other surgical options. The potential benefits in phonation should be weighed against the possibility of rare but serious adverse events.
