RICARDO, Isidoro. Prótesis traqueal implante prolongado: 10 años. Rev. am. med. respir. [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.3, pp.250-257. ISSN 1852-236X.

We analyzed the extracted stent from a patient with benign tracheal stenosis who had a stent for over ten years, in comparison with a new disposal, and we performed simulation "aging" tests in the laboratory. We determined functional conditions and analyzed factors of therapeutic failure. We propose changing modalities in endo-surgical treatment of tracheal stenosis.

Keywords : Tracheal estenosis; Silicona stenting; Tracheal prosthesis.
