Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate outcomes of tracheal balloon dilation for laryngeal stenosis. Design: Retrospective analysis study. Patients: All patients treated with laryngeal balloon dilation with acquired subglottic stenosis with normal vocal cord mobility from 2017 to 2022. Main Outcome Measures: Stenosis severity, Measured using the Cotton and Meyer classification, and McCaffery grading system. Results: A total of 33 patients of acquired subglottic stenosis ranging in age from 13-67 years (18 [54.5%] with grade II stenos is, 10 [30.3%] with grade I stenosis, and 5 [15.2%] with grade III stenos is) were included. A total of 33 balloon dilation laryngoplasties were performed, and 29 (87.9%) were deemed successful. 15 of the 17 patients undergoing primary dilation (88%) had successful outcomes, and in the other 2 [12%], outcomes were unsuccessful and required either laryngotracheal reconstruction or tracheotomy. 16 balloon dilations were performed as a secondary procedure after recent open surgery; all of the procedures (100%) were successful, and thus surgical revision was avoided. After balloon dilatation ,among 22 tracheostomized patients, 19 patient got decannulated. Conclusion: Balloon dilation laryngoplasty is an efficient and safe technique for the treatment of both primary and secondary acquired laryngotracheal stenosis.
