Abstract

Chronic stenosis of the larynx and trachea in children is complex and challenging in otolaryngology. This article provides an overview of treatment approaches, with a focus on neonatal and pediatric populations. We examine the etiology of laryngeal stenosis, including congenital and acquired cases. Treatment options, including balloon dilation, are discussed. We also analyze the efficacy of radiofrequency surgery and balloon dilation interventions in pediatric patients. Demographics, severity, and outcomes are examined based on a study conducted at TashPMI Clinic. Minimally invasive techniques are recommended for limited scar stenosis. This analysis sheds light on managing chronic stenosis in pediatric patients.
