[Classification of laryngotracheal stenoses in the adult].
A new classification for laryngotracheal stenoses in adults is proposed, based on 145 cases treated between 1965 and 1980. Three factors were analyzed when establishing this classification: the extent of laryngeal and tracheal cartilage involvement, laryngeal mobility, and the complexity of the lesions as a function of whether they were systematized or not. This new approach enables a more functional therapy for these stenosis to be instituted.
