Abstract
The microwave tissue coagulation therapy was originally used for hemostasis in the hepatic surgery, which is effectively applied in the endoscopic surgery such as the hemostasis of gastric ulcer or tumor bleeding, stenosis relieving of esophageal or rectal stenosis and tumor reduction in inoperable early cancer cases.We experienced one case of the restenosis after the tracheal reconstruction. The patient, who was 42 year-old male, had severe dyspnea due to the tracheal stenosis for 4 years. The resection of tracheal stenosis and tracheal reconstruction was done. But the restenosis occurred at the tracheal anastomosis site because of the protrusive granulation at one month after operation. The patient was successfully treated by the microwave tissue coagulation therapy.
