[Tracheal stenosis and keloid disposition (author's transl)].

Patients with disposition for cicatricial keloid are expected to get tracheal stenosis by long time intubation. Latest after 48 hours the respiration done by respirator should be managed by tracheotomy tube. Instead of classic tracheotomy an epitheliced tracheotomy should be preferred. For the therapy of tracheal stenosis--excision of tracheal stenosis and end to end anastomosis as well as tracheal groove by Rethi with transplantation of mucosa--the application of triaminolonacetonoid has proved to avoid restenosis by secondary keloid.
