There was no statistically significant difference in the operation specific decannulation rate between the two stent groups. Patients who received S stents were found to tolerate postoperative feeding better than those with A stents. The median time to decannulate, however, was longer for those receiving S stents (5.5 vs. 3.5 months, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.02). Furthermore, those receiving S stents had increased need for airway dilation after stent removal (1.75 vs. 0.17 dilations per patient, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.02) and increased presence of granulation tissue in the airway at the time of stent removal. Multivariate analysis showed the type of stent used independently correlated to time to decannulate (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.022).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Compared to the Teflon Aboulker stents, closed, soft, Silastic stents are associated with improved feeding in the postoperative period.
