Subglottic masses is very rare. The clinical data of five cases of subglottic mass in our hospital from 2017 to 2022 were summarized, and their clinical manifestations, auxiliary examination findings, treatment plan and pathological features were analyzed. Among the 5 patients, 1 case was subglottic pleomorphic adenoma, 1 case was subglottic granuloma, 1 case was subglottic breast cancer metastasis, 1 case was subglottic primary adenoid cystic carcinoma, and 1 case was immunoglobulin G4-related disease. No recurrence was observed in the patients so far. Subglottic mass is easy to be missed. Therefore, when the lesion is suspected in this area, the examination of ear, nose and throat should be carried out systematically to detect the lesion early and improve the prognosis.

Subglottic stenosis after double-lumen tube (DLT) intubation is more likely to occur when an oversized DLT, specifically a 35 Fr DLT, is used in older, shorter women. Reintubation in such cases is challenging and may cause additional traumatic laryngitis. Tracheostomy is the best management for subglottic stenosis after DLT intubation.

Subglottic stenosis poses a rare but life-threatening risk for difficult tracheal intubation. Here, we report a unique case of undiagnosed subglottic stenosis discovered during emergency intubation of an 80-year-old woman with type 2 respiratory failure from infective exacerbation of asthma. A small calibre size 5.

Objective: Serial intralesional steroid injections (SILSI) are increasingly used in the treatment of idiopathic subglottic stenosis (iSGS) and auto-immune related subglottic stenosis (SGS), which are both known for their high rate of recurrences. SILSI could potentially prolong the time to re-intervention. We evaluated the effects of adjuvant SILSI in iSGS and auto-immune related SGS-patients on time to reintervention and spirometry results.

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a rare systemic vasculitis that can involve the respiratory tract and lead to severe airway complications. We present a 61-year-old female with an undiagnosed GPA who experienced severe airway obstruction and rapid deterioration during a flexible bronchoscopy. Severe glottic edema and reduced vocal cord mobility resulted in a challenging airway and rapid desaturation, and ultimately led to cardiac arrest.
