The study included 20 patients with cicatricial stenosis of the larynx and trachea, who were previously performed plastic reconstructive treatment with scar tissue excision in the lumen of the respiratory tract and restoration of the supporting frame of the larynx and trachea using allografts based on costal allocartilage. The age of the patients ranged from 21 to 54 years, the duration of the disease was from 1 to 5 years.

The etiology and pathogenesis of development of scar stenosis of the larynx and trachea were considered, and the analysis of the drugs' use for topical therapy in the comprehensive treatment of this pathology was conducted in the presented review. Special attention was paid to plasma enriched with platelets, its use in otorhinolaryngology, in particular in the treatment of laryngeal diseases.

Unlabelled: The objective of the present study was to optimize the treatment of patients with subglottic laryngeal stenosis.
Material And Methods: We have examined a total of 14 patients presenting with subglottic laryngeal stenosis. The etiological factors and underlying conditions of laryngeal stenosis were the prolonged intubation in 4 patients, Wegener granulomatosis in 6 patients, and idiopathic stenosis of the larynx in 4 patients.
