title: [Microflora of the tracheal mucosa in laryngeal cancer patients following laryngectomy].
abstract: Bacterial flora of the trachea was studied in 19 patients at various stages (one month-3 years) after laryngectomy. Inflammatory lesions of the trachea and bronchi were detected in 15 cases. Tracheal flora comprised mostly staphylococci mixed with other bacteria. The best treatment results were secured in patients in whom cannula was removed at least 2 months after surgery and who received an adequate antibacterial therapy.
