Tracheal Stenosis*

We report the case of tracheal neoplasm with sucessful result. The first symptoms may be shortness of breath, persistent cough and consequently is hemoptysis. Wheezing and stridor are often occurring. Fibroptic bronchoscopy is important in diagnosing and assessing the extent of the endotracheal lesion. The intubation would be introduced below the site of lesion and through operative field in Vietnamse condition with limited equipment. In the case of lesion less than 3 cm, you can resect lesions and then reconstruct the trachea with end -to-end anastomosis without any other technique

OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical profiles, interventions, and surgical outcomes of patients with advanced (grade III and IV) laryngotracheal stenosis prospectively seen over a 2-year period.  

METHODS:

           Design:           Prospective Case Series

          Setting:           Tertiary Provincial Government Hospital

          Participants:  Five (5) patients with advanced laryngotracheal stenosis confirmed by laryngoscopy and/or tracheoscopy.

RESULTS: Five (5) patients (4 males, 1 female), aged 23 to 31years (mean 27-years-old) diagnosed with advanced laryngotracheal stenosis between June 2016 to June 2018 were included in this series. Four resulted from prolonged intubation (14 - 60 days) while one had a prolonged tracheotomy (13 years). Presentations of stenosis included dyspnea on extubation attempt (n=3), failure to extubate (n=1) and failure to decannulate tracheotomy (n=1). Stenosis length was 3 cm in two, and 1.5 cm in three. Of the five (5) patients, three had grade IV stenosis while two had grade III stenosis based on the Cotton-Myer Classification System. Two of those with grade IV stenosis and both patients with grade III stenosis had undergone prolonged intubation. The stenosis involved the subglottis in three, and combined subglottic and tracheal stenosis in two. Prolonged intubation was present in all three with subglottic stenosis, and in one of the two with combined subglottic and tracheal stenosis. Two patients underwent open surgical approaches while three underwent endoscopic dilatation procedures. Four patients were successfully decannulated while one is still on tracheostomy. None of them had post-operative complications.

CONCLUSION:  Advanced laryngotracheal stenosis is a challenging entity that results from heterogenous causes. Categorizing stenosis and measuring stenosis length may help in treatment planning and predicting surgical outcome.

Glomus tumor is a distinctive type of perivascular tumor whose cell type is a modified smooth cell that closely resembles the glomus body, and this is where the tumor's name is derived. This kind of neoplasm is a benign and rather uncommon neoplasm that can be found in any part of the body, yet it is most commonly seen in the subungual area. Glomus tumor of the trachea is extremely rare. We present the clinicopathologic findings of a resected glomus tumor of the trachea along with a review of the related literature.
