Management of subglottic stenosis.
Evaluation and management of pediatric subglottic stenosis is complex and technically challenging. Laryngotracheal reconstruction has become the standard of care for symptomatic subglottic stenosis in children. Careful preoperative planning, meticulous surgery, and dedicated postoperative care are essential for a successful outcome. Early recognition and management of intraoperative and postoperative complications minimize their impact.
