| Summary: | Background. With prolonged mechanical ventilation, which is necessary for patients
with critical conditions and prolonged surgical interventions, the risk of developing
cicatricial stenosis of the trachea is high. Currently, there are no uniform standards of prevention and an algorithm for the treatment of this serious complication, which in some cases
leads to disability of the patient and fatal outcomes. The purpose of this work was a brief
review of the literature on the problem of post-intubation tracheal stenosis and a demonstration
of a clinical case of successful radical treatment of a patient. Materials and methods.
The article presents a clinical case of reconstructive surgical treatment of a patient with decompensated
cicatricial tracheal stenosis (90%), detected 2 months after prolonged mechanical
ventilation (ventilator). Result. During dynamic follow-up 6 months after radical surgical
treatment, the patient was not diagnosed with signs of respiratory failure and recurrence
of tracheal stenosis, confirmed by CT data of the chest organs and bronchoscopy. Conclusions.
Patients on long-term ventilation should be prevented from tracheal stenosis. Depending
on the level, extent, and degree of tracheal stenosis, a personalized treatment strategy
for the patient should be chosen. With the development of decompensated stenosis, radical
surgical treatment is the method of choice. |
