Tracheal stenosis induced from the various causes has still remained as a serious problem in the otolaryngologic field. There has been used the numerous methods in the treatment of the tracheal stenosis and the each case has required the therapeutic modality. Now, we report two cases of tracheal stenosis ; one case had been used the silicone T - tube in the tracheal stenosis after tracheostomy in 6 year - old child and the other one had been used the silicone tube stent with oral mucosa graft in the treatment of the tracheal narrowing due to inflammatory mass in 19 year - old male patient.

일반적으로 기관협착의 치료는 기관절재후 단단문합술로 가능하나 광범위한 기관협착이 발생하였을 때는 그 치료가 매우 어렵다. 이경우는 기도전벽을 개방하여 경부 피부와 기관연을 봉합하는 Trough를 형성한 뒤 이차적으로 연골이식이나 경부 피부를 이용한 피판을 만들어서 기관을 재건하는 Trough방법이 주로 적용되고 있다. 이 때 이식되는 연골은 늑연골 이나 비중격 연골이며 측벽의 재건에는 늑연골이 좋고 전벽의 재건에는 점막이 붙어 있는 비중격 연골의 복합이식편이 사용될 수 있다. 본 교실에서는 기관 절제 후 단단문합술이 불가능하였던 5명의 환자에서 Trough방법을 이용하여 기관 재건에 성공하였기에 그 결과를 보고하고자 한다.

Esophageal stricture due to various caustic agents has led to decrease markedly with the improvement of the way of life and socioenvironmental change, and can be prevented with adequate procedure and management. However, there are still sporadic incidents of esophageal stricture due to inadequate treatment and uncooperation of patients. Esophageal stricture was treated with various kinds of bougies ; peroral esophagoscopic bougie, Hurst or Maloney type weighted bougie, endless bougie, retrograde esophageal bougie and open surgery. Recently the authors had experienced a case of severe esophageal stricture after ingestion of HCl, which was treated by gastrostomy and endless bougienage with good result.

저자들은 1984년 12월 17일부터 1987년 2월 26일까지 경희대학교 의과대학 부속병원 이비인후과 및 흉부외과에서 경험한 9례의 기관협착증환자를 대상으로 임상적 고찰을 하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1) 연령 및 성별분포는 여자 3례, 남자 6례이었고, 10세이하 3례, 10대 2례, 20대 2례, 40대 이상이 2례 이었다. 2) 원인은 지속적 기관내삽입관에 의한 경우가 4례이었고 1례는 선천성 혈관기형인 double aortic arch에 의해 기관이 눌리어 기도협착증상이 있었던 경우이었다. 상기관절개술에 의한 경우가 2례, 경부외상 1례, 기관내 종양 2례이었다. 3) 협착부위의 길이는 1.5cm에서 2cm까지가 4례로 가장 많았고 3cm이내가 2례, 4cm이내 1례, 6cm이내 1례이었다. 4) 치료는 보존적인 방법으로 내시경하에서 육아조직 및 반흔조직을 laser를 이용하여 제거한 후 silastic stent 혹은 Montgomery T-tube 삽입후 4주에서 6주후 제거하여 치료한 경우가 2례이었고 협착부위절제 및 단단문합술을 시행한 경우가 6례이었다. 1례에서는 aortic arch division을 시행하였다. 5) 예후는 9례중 단단문합술을 시행한 6례 그리고 보존적 방법으로 laser를 이용한 육아조직의 제거 및 지지물삽입을 시행한 3례에서 모두 현재까지 재발은 보이지 않고 있다. 6) 기관협착의 길이가 1.5cm에서 4cm까지의 경우에는 supralaryngeal release procedure없이 단단문합술을 시행하였고 협착길이가 6cm인 1례에서는 supralaryngeal release를 하여 tension없이 문합술을 시행할 수 있었다.

Tracheal stenosis in children are often the result of prolonged intubation and its treatment depends on the severity and extent of the involved segment. Repeated surgical endoscopic procedures may be indicated in those with mild stenoses mainly consisting of granulation tissues, However, surgical reconstruction of the airway should be performed in patients with severe, extensive stenoses composed of mature scar tissue. The senior author has successfully managed such patients with cartilage graft augmentation and tracheal resection anastomosis. This is a presentation of 9 pediatric patients with tracheal stenosis who have been successfully treated by resection anastomosis. The details of the cases and indications for this type of surgery are discussed.

Material and Method: Esophageal reconstruction by the hypopharyngointestinal anastomosis was done in 7 patients of corrosive upper esophageal stricture at St. Mary's Hospital from August 1995 to January 1997. Result: There were one male and six female patients ranging from 20 to 63 years of age. The causative agents were acid in 6 patients and alkali in 1 patient. The esophageal reconstruction was made by hypopharyngcolojejunostomy in 4 patients and hypopharyngocologastrostomy in 3 patients. There were no operative mortalities. One patient developed anastomotic stenosis but others were free from dysphagia. All gained 4 kg to 13 kg of body weight during the follow-up period. Conclusion: In this experience right colon and terminal ileum including ileocecal valve was revealed as a good substitute for the esophagus and the esophageal reconstruction by hypopharyngocologastro (jejuno)stomy seems to be a satisfactory method with acceptable morbidity and mortality in corrosive upper esophageal stricture patient.

Purpose This study aimed to develop a rabbit iliac stenosis model and evaluate the effects of different mechanical injury techniques on the degree of arterial stenosis. Materials and Methods Eighteen rabbits were divided into three groups: cholesterol-fed with pullover balloon injury (group A; n = 6), cholesterol-fed with localized balloon dilatation (group B; n = 6), and chow-diet with pullover balloon injury (group C; n = 6). After baseline angiography, the left iliac arteries of all rabbits were injured with a 3 × 10 mm noncompliant balloon using either a wide pullover technique (groups A and C) or a localized balloon dilatation technique (group B). A nine-week follow-up angiography was performed, and the angiographic late lumen loss and percentage of stenosis were compared. Results Group A exhibited the most severe late lumen loss (A vs. B, 0.67 ± 0.13 vs. 0.04 ± 0.13 mm, p < 0.0001; A vs. C, 0.67 ± 0.13 vs. 0.26 ± 0.29 mm, p < 0.05; stenosis percentage 32.02% ± 6.54%). In contrast, group B showed a minimal percentage of stenosis (1.75% ± 6.55%). Conclusion Pullover-balloon injury can lead to significant iliac artery stenosis in rabbits with controlled hypercholesterolemia. This model may be useful for elucidating the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and for evaluating the efficacy of novel therapeutic interventions.

Foreign body in the esophagus is not uncommom in the otolaryngological field, but esophageal perforation followed by pneumothrax due to esophageal foreign body is very rare. Authors recently experienced such a case developed in 1 year old male baby. This baby had been treated at local clinic for 2 weeks prior to admission under the impression of U.R.I.. Thereafter foreign body in the esophagus (fine wire pin) with left pneumothorax was detected by chest X-ray and the body was transfered to our hospital. Closed chest tube was inserted on left and under the general anesthesia, foreign body was removed by esophagoscopy. He was discharged on 16th postoperative day uneventfully.
