“…In human fetal larynx, on the other hand, males had greater values but there was not statistically significant difference between the sexes (Cicekcibasi et al 2008). The larynges of boys and girls were found to be not different from one another (Dalal et al 2009).…”

Yeni Zelanda tavşanında larynx ve tracheanın morfometrik özellikleri Eurasian Journal of Veterinary SciencesEurasian J Vet Sci, 2016, 32, 4, 208-213 208 Öz Amaç: Bu çalışma Yeni Zelanda tavşanlarında larynx kıkır-dakları ile trachea'nın morfometrik özelliklerini araştırarak, cinsiyetler arasındaki farklılıkları ortaya koymak amacıyla gerçekleştirildi.Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmada 6 erkek, 6 dişi olmak üzere toplam 12 adet sağlıklı erişkin Yeni Zelanda tavşanı kullanıldı. Baş ve boyun bölgesinin diseksiyonu sonucunda çıkartılan larynx kıkırdakları ve trachea'dan bazı ölçümler alınarak, istatistiki analiz yapıldı. İstatistiki önem P<0.05 düzeyinde belirlendi. Bulgular:Yapılan çalışma sonucunda Yeni Zelanda tavşanla-rında trachea ve larynx'in cinsiyetler arasında istatistiki olarak farklı olmadığı, sadece cartilago thyroidea'nın bazı ölçüm değerlerinde erkek ve dişiler arasında anlamlı fark olduğu tespit edildi.Öneri: Elde edilen bu morfometrik bilgilerin veteriner anatomi bilgi birikimine katkı sağlamasının yanısıra, oluşturula-bilecek olan model ve klinikte teşhis ve tedavi noktasında da bir ışık tutabileceği öngörülmektedir. Anahtar kelimeler: Larynx, trachea, morfometri, tavşan AbstractAim: This study was conducted to investigate the morphometric features of the larynx cartilages and trachea in New Zealand rabbits and reveal the differences between sexes. Material and Methods:In the study, the larynx cartilages belonging to a total of 12 healthy and adult New Zealand rabbits of both sexes (6 males, 6 females) were used. Some measurements were taken on the larynx cartilages and trachea, which had been taken out as a result of dissection of the head and neck, and statistical analyses were made. The statistical significance level was established at P<0.05. Results:Although the trachea and laynx related-measurements have no statistical difference between sexes, there was a statistical significance between sexes only in some values concerning the thyroid cartilage. Conclusion:In conclusion, it has been suggested that the results from this study will contribute to the present morphological knowledge on respiratory system and may shed light on the reconstructive anatomy and clinical procedures concerning this system.

“…The cuffed tracheal tubes effect on stridor risk, (adjusting for confounders), was non-significant: OR = 2,2; Conf. Interval 95% [0, [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]; p = 0,5. Conclusions: The use of cuffed endotracheal tubes did not increase the risk of post-extubation stridor in children.…”

“…Estos beneficios han impulsado la utilización de tubos con cuff en anestesia pediátrica 7 , sin aumentar los efectos adversos, lo que ha sido demostrado en 2 estudios que aportan evidencia de primera categoría 8,9 . Recientemente con el advenimiento de nuevas técnicas diagnósticas 10,11 , se ha cuestionado el paradigma clásico, debido a que las imágenes obtenidas en niños sedados y en ventilación espontánea ubican el punto más estrecho de la laringe en la abertura glótica, sin mayores cambios durante el desarrollo posterior 10 . Pese a lo anterior, aún persiste dudas 12,13,14,15,16 respecto a la seguridad del uso de tubos con cuff.…”

“…Most of the authors consider the subglottis to be the narrowest part of an infants larynx but some authors consider the vocal cords, to be the narrowest part. (3) the morbidity and mortality associated with tracheostomy in children is greater than in adults. (3,4) and the younger the child the greater the risks.…”

A trachestomy is a small, surgical opening from the skin to the anterior wall of the trachea, pediatric patients for whom tracheostomy is more hazardous than adults, consideration have different anatomy, medical conditions, and prognoses than adults, even the tracheostomy tubes are different in size, the indications for tracheostomy in children include, bypassing airway obstruction (Laryngo-tracheobronchitis, epiglottitis), providing access for prolong ventilation, and facilitating tracheo-bronchial toilet, to day prime indication for pediatrics tracheostomy is subglottic stenosis. We have reviewed experience with 84 tracheostomies under 13 years of age in our hospital. We are here discussing the common indications and complications, difficulty in decannulation in pediatric patients, in our study the common indication is the foreign body bronchus followed by other conditions.
