title: [Reconstruction of a larynx and trachea after polytraumatism (author's transl)].
abstract: The sourse of a larynx and oesophagus-which had suffered repeated lesion-is reported. Because of the cicatrization and the proliferation the lumen of the larynx was unadapted to respiration. Into the stoma of the cicatrized trachea only a child's cannula could be inserted. The tracheal proliferation was removed surgically and the cicatrial entrance was duly dilated. Afterwards by dilating operation satisfactory air passage was assured. Finally, by wandering of a flap obtained from a thoracal skin the larynx and the tracheostoma were covered. The satisfactory results of the surgical intervention are verified by the time of two years, passed symptom-free and free of complaints since the operation.
