“…The modifi ed translaryngeal tracheostomy of Fantoni's method has been described. 5 The average time for this intervention was 8 ± 1 min. The original technique of Ciaglia Blue Rhino percutaneous tracheostomy 4 was changed in the following way.…”

“…In our experience, the systematic recourse to a fi ber-optic bronchoscope in place of a rigid bronchoscope in Fantoni's translaryngeal procedure allows its application even in patients with diffi cult tracheal access, stiffness of the neck, or limited opening of the mouth. 5 The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the validity of the technique and complications of the Fantoni tracheostomy vs the Ciaglia Blue Rhino tracheostomy. The costs of the Fantoni and CBR tracheostomies were compared with those of surgical tracheostomy (ST).…”
Mini-invasive tracheostomies are easy, safe, and fast. Ciaglia Blue Rhino tracheostomy took less time to perform and had fewer complications than TLT, because the technique was simpler.

Our experience shows that the major advantage of the use of the Fantoni tracheostomy is the retrograde dilatation of the stoma, which prevents serious complications compared with other techniques.
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.
