Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlated issues in the stenting treatment of major airway constriction. Methods Nineteen cases of major airway stenting procedure were studied retrospectively. The clinical choice of stents of different advantages or deficiencies were discussed. The importances of intravenous anesthesia supporting, life parameters monitoring during the procedures and the prevention of complications were analysed. Results Under intravenous and local anesthesia, 19 Wallstents had been successively placed and relieved 19 cases of major airway constrictions due to malignant or benign diseases (15 of tumors, 3 of tuberculosis, 1 of tracheomalacia). Intravenous anesthesia and life parameters monitoring had made the procedures more safe and precise. Conclusions Major airway stenting is an reliable method for relieving trachiobronchial stenosis; and intravenous anesthesia supporting and life parameters monitoring guarantee the satisfactions of procedures.
