Tracheomalacia and surgical options: A case series perspective.

Tracheomalacia causes considerable morbidity in children, and the best treatment options remain debated. This paper presents a case series of seven Danish children who underwent surgical interventions, such as tracheopexy and aortopexy, demonstrating favourable clinical outcomes, notably with early intervention. We discuss the indications, timing and potential benefits of surgery for tracheomalacia in reducing respiratory symptoms caused by tracheal collapse. Our case series highlights the potential of surgical options in managing tracheomalacia, emphasising the need for standardised protocols, multidisciplinary and international collaboration, and further research to optimise treatment strategies and outcomes.
