Abstract:

Objective To analyze the clinical data of 11 cases of congenital tracheal stenosis(CTS).Methods The clinical data of 11 cases of neonatal tracheal stenosis were retrospectively analyzed, and the related diagnosis and treatment plans of CTS were reviewed based on literature.Results There were 8 males and 3 females in 11 cases of CTS; 6 cases were diagnosed by fiberoptic bronchoscopy, and 5 cases were diagnosed by chest CT(including airway reconstruction). Ten cases of CTS had cyanosis and dyspnea of varying degrees.Ten cases had dysplasia in other parts, mainly laryngeal malacia and cardiac malformation. Chest CT showed diffuse inflammatory exudation in 3 cases, consolidation of lung in 2 cases, pleural effusion in 2 cases, and intracranial hemorrhage in 2 cases.Conclusion Fiberoptic bronchoscopy and CT are helpful in the diagnosis of CTS. Most of the neonates with CTS are complicated with other developmental abnormalities and have severe pulmonary imaging manifestations. The mild cases of tracheal stenosis are mainly treated by conservative treatment in internal medicine,and surgical treatment is necessary for those with obvious symptoms. Slide operation is an ideal surgical mode at present, and tracheal stent has a broad prospect
