Carbon Dioxide Laser Treatment of Laryngotracheal Stenosis
$CO_2$ Laser에 의한 기관 및 후두협착증의 치험
Abstract
Chronic laryngotracheal stenosis is becoming increasingly prevalent. Many acceptable procedures such as repeated dilation, laryngotracheoplasty and end-to-end anastomosis had been done according to it's indication, but it have given less than favorable results. Since 1972 the experimental and clinical experiences of Jako and Strong, the carbon dioxide laser has offered a valuable tool to the otolaryngologist. Mihashi (1976) and Lyons (1980) reported use of laser to the management of laryngotracheal stenosis with successful results. From April 82' to March 83', using the carbon dioxide laser, the various obstructing lesions were excised microendoscopically which include four patients considered failures from conventional surgical technique and one patient laryngeal stenosis occured after hemilaryngectomy and neoglottis formation. We concluded as follows, 1) Laser surgery is a useful method to the management of laryngotracheal stenosis in maintaining adequate airway. 2) Formation of granulation after laser surgery was less than other conventional methods.
만성 후두및 기관협착증의 빈도는 점차 증가하고 있는 추세에 있으며 이에 대한 치료로서 후두 및 기관확장술이나 성형술을 비롯하여 단단문합술등, 여러종류의 방법들이 각각의 적응증에 따라 시행되어 왔지만 아직도 만족스러운 결과를 얻기 어려운 경우가 적지 않다. 1972년 Strong과 Jako가 후두질환에
