Tracheobronchial tree: expandable metallic stents used in experimental and clinical applications. Work in progress.

Abstract: An expandable stainless steel stent was formulated for use in the treatment of tracheobronchial stenosis, tracheomalacia, and airway collapse following tracheal reconstruction. The stents were placed through an endotracheal tube into the trachea and bronchi of 11 healthy dogs. The stents expanded over time, substantially increasing the diameter of the lumen. Slight migration occasionally occurred, while an inflammatory reaction was noted in each animal. The stents were successfully used in the treatment of two… Show more

“…Similar changes have been observed in humans (Kozarek, 1990 Dumon, 1990;lnsall and Morritt, 1991;Montgomery, 1965;Montgomery, 1968Neville etal., 1972Oflowski, 1987;Paliero and Shepherd, 1974;Simonds et al, 1985;Uchida et al, 1988;Wallace et al, 1986Westaby et al, 1982Westaby and Shepard, 1983). Three basic types ofprosthetic devices are currently available: 1) molded silicone prostheses, 2) expandable metal prostheses, or 3) combinations ofmetal and silicone.…”

“…Essas cirurgias podem ser necessárias após trauma, cirurgias oncológicas ou estenoses de origem inflamatória, tumorais ou pós intubação. Geralmente ressecções até 6 a 8 cm podem ser reparadas usando anastomose término-terminal isoladas ou associada ao uso de próteses, enxertos de cartilagem nasal, costal e traqueal 5,6,9,25,26 . Freqüentemente, nestas cirurgias, o epitélio colunar ciliado transforma-se em epitélio escamoso com áreas de metaplasia epitelial e formação de tecido de granulação, obstruindo a luz traqueal 17,27,28 .…”

“…A associação dessas alterações regenerativas epiteliais com reabsorção da cartilagem traqueal pode levar à formação de estenose circunferencial e, conseqüentemente, obstrução respiratória. A estenose resultante requer outras cirurgias, tais como dilatações e moldes de silicone ou metais 25 . Entretanto, mesmo com essas técnicas, há um potencial grande de complicações como: sangramento, erosão, deslocamento do molde, redução do lúmen, inflamação e formação de tecido de granulação 25,26,29 .…”

“…The implantation of prosthetic tracheobronchial metal stents has been successfully carried out in benign tracheobronchial disease [1][2][3][4]. This report focuses on a case of dynamic airway collapse secondary to bronchial instability treated with two different types of balloonexpandable endobronchial prostheses, the Palmaz-Stent [5] and the Strecker-Stent [6].…”
