Tracheal stenosis in association with the double aortic arch (DAA) is uncommon; however, it carries a high risk of morbidity, mortality, and restenosis. Although surgery is the mainstay of managing a case of the DAA with tracheal stenosis, management of tracheal restenosis requires a multidisciplinary approach. In this case report, we present our successful experience in managing a child of DAA with tracheal stenosis who developed tracheal restenosis after sliding tracheoplasty of trachea.

Objective: Analysis of risk factors for restenosis after intervention for tuberculous airway stenosis.

Methods: We retrospectively collected the clinical data of patients diagnosed with tuberculous airway stenosis in the Second Hospital of Lanzhou University and Lanzhou Pulmonary Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023. The patients were divided into the restenosis group and the non-restenosis group according to whether or not restenosis occurred in the airway within 1 year after the intervention, and the differences in the clinical data between the two groups were compared, and the variables with statistically significant differences in the univariate analysis were analyzed by multifactorial binary logistic regression.

Article Synopsis
  • Patch tracheoplasty is an alternative technique for treating congenital tracheal stenosis, which reduces tension during repair but has a higher risk of complications like restenosis and tracheal collapse.
  • The study explores using a new decellularization method with CHAPS and DNase to create a biocompatible tracheal matrix and enhance epithelial regeneration using extracellular vesicles from adipose mesenchymal stem cells.
  • Experimental results showed that this method improved cell proliferation and re-epithelialization in both lab testing and animal models, indicating potential for clinical application in repairing tracheal defects.

Post-intubation tracheal stenosis (PITS) is a serious complication of prolonged intubation, often requiring surgical intervention. This study aims to present the long-term outcomes of patients with PITS who underwent tracheal resection and reconstruction, as well as to discuss the efficacy of these surgical methods in comparison to stenting. This retrospective study included patients treated for PITS at our center between October 2005 and October 2022.

Objective: This study aims to document and analyze the challenges and outcomes of performing complex airway surgery in a low-resource, post-war setting in Mekelle, Ethiopia.

Methods: This prospective case series examines clinical data from five patients who underwent airway reconstruction surgeries and one patient who underwent total laryngectomy at Ayder Comprehensive Specialized Hospital in Mekelle. Data included patient demographics, airway stenosis etiology and severity, operative details, postoperative outcomes, complications, and hospital length of stay.

Department of Surgery, Section of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, University of Chicago Medicine, 5841 South Maryland Avenue, Chicago, IL, USA. Electronic address:

Laryngotracheal stenosis (LTS) encompasses a spectrum of conditions characterized by the luminal narrowing of the supraglottis, glottis, subglottis, and/or trachea. However, endoscopic treatment methods are associated with significantly higher rates of restenosis compared to open techniques. The number of endoscopic modalities continues to expand without a clear consensus on the most appropriate treatment choice.
