Endoscopic cricoid split in a tertiary referral paediatric centre.

CONCLUSION: The extubation rates for endoscopic cricoid split are comparable to the open procedure. It is a safe and efficient method for managing subglottic stenosis, whether acquired or congenital. The main advantage is the shorter operative time, in addition to the avoidance of an external scar and drain. PMID: 30008273 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
