ABSTRACT
Objective:
To make an artificial trachea, which can really healed with native trachea.Methods:
20 dogs are randomized into a pedicle group and a nonpedicle group. 6 cm cervical trachea was resected and replaced with "sandwich" artificial trachea made from memory alloy meshes by two-stage operative procedure. Survival period and stenosis of anastomosis were recorded.Results:
Seven dogs in pedicle group survived well and another three were dead. The cause of death was anastomosis stricture in 1 and infection in 2. All dogs in nonpedicle group were dead within four weeks because of stenosis or infection.Conclusion:
Two-stage operative pedicle "sandwich" artificial trachea made from memory alloy mesh is up to now the closest artificial trachea to human native trachea. It could be applied clinically.
