Popis: The tracheostomy procedure presents some long term complications such as the depressed scar. It can be responsible for a tracheal tug, invaginated scar, inaesthetic scar or all of them. No consensus has emerged in the treatment of this type of pathological scarring. We want to propose a new surgical approach to correct all these three pathological scarring mechanism by a subcutaneous flap in single operation.
