Objective To describe our experience in the management of laryngotracheal stenosis (LTS).Study design Prospective study. Results There were 21 males and 9 females treated for LTS resulting from trauma (19), intubation (9) and congenital (2). Patients were divided into four groups based on surgical procedures they underwent: group I, endoscopy dilatation group (7 cases); group II, laryngotracheoplasty with Montgomery tube insertion (12 cases); group III, laryngotracheoplasty with Montgomery laryngeal stent insertion (5 cases) and group IV, cricotracheal resection with M-tube insertion (6 cases); The number of patients decannulated in group I, group II, group III and group IV were 4, 10, 0 and 5, respectively. We found statistically signifi cant difference between decannulated and nondecannulated group for site and length of stenosis. Materials and methods ConclusionPatients undergoing dilatation for LTS require multiple procedures. Open surgical exploration with stent has a better outcome than those with repeated dilatation.

“…The mean number of days patients were intubated post SSLTR was 6.5 days (median 6.5, reference range [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. At the time of extubation with the SSLTR patients, two patients had stridor that did not require reintubation, seven had stridor requiring reintubation and three required temporary tracheostomy.…”

“…Similar studies in the paediatric population show a range of findings from poor [4,8,9] , to good voice outcome [5,10] . Voice outcome may depend on the preoperative condition, such as the grade of stenosis [9,11,12] or methodological differences in relation to how voice outcome is evaluated.…”

“…Furthermore, published studies have a range of participant numbers, from 12 [8] to 77 [12] reflecting the small caseload. The overarching conclusion that can be drawn from the literature Using hyaluronic acid for improving vocal function in a prepubescent boy with an atrophied right vocal fold…”
