Title: Tracheal resection associated with slide tracheoplasty for long-segment congenital tracheal stenosis involving the carina
Abstract: Surgical alternatives for infants with congenital tracheal stenosis resulting from complete tracheal rings include resection with end-to-end anastomosis,1 pericardial2 or cartilage tracheoplasty,3 slide tracheoplasty,4 and more recently, free tracheal autograft.2 We report here a case of concomitant tracheal resection and slide tracheoplasty.
