Airway stenting involves a stent being inserted into a stenotic site in the airway. In patients with airway stenosis, the airway is the surgical field; therefore, anesthetic management is challenging, and avoiding hypoxia is important. Limited information is available on the anesthetic management of airway stenting.

Background: Airway stenting is a procedure in which a stent is inserted into a stenotic site of the airway. The safest method of ventilation for airway stenting is controversial. A prospective randomized interventional study was conducted on airway stenting.

Airway stenting is a procedure in which a stent is inserted into a stenotic site in the airway. However, the optimal ventilation for airway stenting remains controversial. We have planned a randomized, unblinded controlled study to compare intraoperative respiratory status by dividing patients, who underwent airway stenting, into spontaneous respiration (SP) and controlled ventilation with muscle relaxants (MR) groups.
