ABSTRACT
The data of a case of congenital subglottic stenosis (C-SGS) who underwent slide laryngotracheoplasty in the Center for Respiratory Intervention, Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University in December 2021 was analyzed retrospectively.The patient was a girl aged 2 months and 15 days.She visited the hospital 23 days after tracheotomy due to dyspnea for more than 2 months.The bronchoscopy and annular cartilage B ultrasound results suggested subglottic stenosis and no scar hyperplasia.Based on the medical history, the child was diagnosed with C-SGS.Slide laryngotracheoplasty was performed 2 weeks after admission, and the tracheotomy tube was removed after surgery.The child was followed up 2 months after surgery, and she recovered well with no dyspnea.The study results suggest that early and safe slide laryngotracheoplasty after definite diagnosis can provide immediate and sufficient airway space for C-SGS patients, and protect their voice and swallowing function.
