American journal of otolaryngology, 45(1), 104055.More infoSubglottic and tracheal stenosis (SGTS) in adults is an acquired or idiopathic condition that can lead to dyspnea, and even life-threatening airway obstruction. Endoscopic techniques have advanced and largely eclipsed open surgery, with open surgery now reserved for refractory cases (Hseu et al., 2013; Feinstein et al., 2017). Currently, there is no accepted guideline for the endoscopic treatment of SGTS. Thus, the aim of the present study is to examine the impact of various clinical and pathological characteristics on outcomes to endoscopic treatment in a cohort of SGTS patients.
