Surgery of extensive defects of the anterior wall of the trachea and soft tissues of the neck after laryngo-tracheostomy

The authors present the results of treatment of 103 patients with extensive defects of the trachea and soft tissues of the neck after laringo-tracheostomy or tracheostomy. The article shows a differentiated approach to the plastic of the anterior wall of the trachea depending on the size of the defect. The efficiency of two-stage reconstructive plastic surgery with the installation of T-stent in the stenosis zone with exposure of 6 months to 8 months is proved. Microsurgical aid was needed for patients who had previously undergone multiple interventions on the trachea in other hospitals
