Özet
Surgical correction of grade III glotto-subglottic stenosis in a two-month-old girl was illustrated in a staged manner. Firstly, a silicone keel was placed via anterior thyrotomy following a tracheotomy. Secondly, laryngotracheal reconstruction was performed by interposing an autogenous thyroid cartilage anteriorly between the edges of the longitudinally divided cricoid cartilage and the upper tracheal rings. A stent was maintained for two months. The glottis and subglottis appeared patent and healed following removal of the stent. A meaningful voice and rather comfortable respiration were observed during a 13-month follow-up. The use of thyroid cartilage autograft offers many advantages in laryngotracheal reconstruction with considerably less technical difficulty.
