Abstrakt: Reconstruction of the larynx and trachea is most often needed after conventional methods of repair have failed. The advanced stenotic lesion can be adequately corrected with a composite nasal septal graft in a one stage procedure. Severe glottic stenosis from crush injuries or following partial laryngectomy, subglottic stenosis, and high tracheal stenosis are most amenable to this type of reconstruction. The surgical technique is presented, and six cases of clinical utilization are reviewed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
