Objective

To study results of resection and end-to-end anastomosis in tracheal stenosis (TS).

Patients and method

Retrospective review of 14 patients with previous long-term intubation and residual tracheal stenosis, all operated on with resection and end-to-end anastomosis. We studied the percentage of surgical success, decannulation index, use of Montgomery T tube, and complications.

Results

We performed a total of 42 interventions (mean, 2.93) and 19 T-Montgomery tubes were used. We achieved surgical success in 85.12% of patients, with a decannulation index of 71.42%. Two patients developed granulomas in the suture field that required treatment with endoscopic laser and cryotherapy. One patient died intraoperatively.

Conclusions

Surgical resection with end-to-end anastomosis and insertion of a T-Montgomery tube is a useful technique in post-intubation tracheal stenosis despite involving multiple interventions in a large percentage of patients.

Objetivo

Evaluar los resultados de la cirugía de resección con anastomosis término-terminal en la estenosis traqueal (ET).

Pacientes y método

Estudio retrospectivo de 14 pacientes con antecedentes de intubación prolongada y ET, operados mediante resección y anastomosis término-terminal. Se estudia los porcentajes de resolución de la estenosis, decanulación, utilización del tubo en T de Montgomery y complicaciones.

Resultados

Se realizó un total de 42 (media, 2,93) intervenciones y se colocaron 19 tubos en T de Montgomery. En el 85,12% de los pacientes se resolvió la estenosis, con decanulación en el 71,42%. Dos pacientes desarrollaron granulomas en la zona de sutura, que requirieron exéresis mediante broncoláser y crioterapia. Una paciente falleció durante la operación.

Conclusiones

La cirugía resectiva con anastomosis término- terminal y colocación de tubo en T de Montgomery es una técnica útil para la resolución de la ET tras intubación, aunque en un alto porcentaje de pacientes requiera múltiples intervenciones
