The standard and optimized plastic surgery methods on the T-shaped endoprosthesis of the cervical(upper) thoracic trachea are presented. The results were analyzed and compared according to which the proposed method prevents such complications as the formation of a scar tubercle in the stent bed due to the thick scar tissue of the membranous surface of the trachea, the formation of a scar tubercle behind the jugular notch and the formation of a rigid fibrous ring behind the jugular notch of the thoracic partof the trachea. the comparative analysis also showed a shortening of the cannula-bearing period and a reduction in the number of restenoses.Keywords: Cicatricial tracheal stenosis, staged reconstructive plastic surgery, T-shaped stent, tracheal restenosis, post-intubation, post-tracheostomy
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
