title: [Experimental study of trachea reconstruction using autogenous soft tissue of chest wall with the stent].
abstract: The dog trachea were reconstructed after the trachea resection using the tubule made by autogenous intercostal compound soft tissue, including intercostal muscle, costal periosteum, and pleura, with pedicle of the intercostal vessels. A stent of fine wire was implanted inside of the reconstructed trachea as supporting. The postoperative result in the short period was satisfied, the operative complications, such as anastomotic leakage, granulation, anastomotic stenosis, and stent moving were not common. The tubule design, operative procedure, the postoperative local X-ray and the fiberscopic findings in the dogs were introduced. The study provides experimental evidences for clinical trachea reconstruction.
