“…Alternative methods commonly used are argon plasma coagulation, laser, electrocautery, mechanical dilatation and cryotherapy during bronchoscopy (7). Promising results have been reported for the use of electrocautery and balloon dilatation in post-intubation stenosis (8). Stent implantation is usually preferred in posttransplant stenosis (11) or stenosis occurring after resection of tumors located near the tracheal carina, as in our case (2,6,9,10).…”

Primary tumors of distal trachea and tracheal carina without distant metastasis are extremely rare and surgical excision improves survival. Although various complications have been reported in case series, stenosis is rare on the anastomotic line and stent implantation. Herein, we present a 41-year-old male case who presented with successful tracheal Y-stent implantation for stenosis after carina reconstruction surgery. stenosis is rare on the anastomotic line and stenting (2-4). To the best of our knowledge, cases of stenting for stenosis after carinal reconstruction are rare and our case is the first for in Turkey.

“…Benign stenosis is basically either complex or web-like. Increased risk of recurrence is reported in complex stenosis, if only mechanical dilatation is used (8). Our case suffered from bilateral stenosis, where the right side was complex and the left side was mixed type.…”
