In Germany, surgery for pediatric airway stenoses is not primarily focused on treatment centers.

Several factors offer potential to be optimized in the care for children with a compromised airway and improving communication between otolaryngologists and pediatricians should be a primary goal in the future.
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.
