[Re-establishment of tracheal continuity by lowering the larynx after tracheal resection].

The authors describe a technique for re-establishing tracheal continuity after anastomotic resection of the cervical and cervico-thoracic trachea. Simply lowering the larynx cervically without an associated thoracic phase enables termino-terminal anastomosis of the trachea to be carried out after resection of more than 5 cm. In this article, the technique and the results obtained in 8 cases of pure tracheal stenosis are described in detail.
