[Laryngotracheoscopic findings before and after closure of a sewed-up tracheostoma in children with special regards to functional results. IIIrd communication (author's transl)].
13 children of all age groups, suffering from a respiratory insufficiency, and treated with a sewed-up-tracheostoma, were examined by tracheoscopies in regular intervals. The patients were followed up for at least two years and six months. 46 bronchoscopies were performed. Very quick epithelization of the transplantate with two typical forms of the transplantate could be found: development of a pad, and a prolaps of the transplantate. The development of a pad could be considered as the more favourable form with regard to the pulmonary function. The bronchological and roentgenological follow-up-examinations revealed good functional results in all cases except one.
