All patients underwent rigid bronchoscopy followed by dynamic flexible bronchoscopy after tracheostomy tube removal. Collapse was classified as anterior, posterior, lateral, or combined according to dynamic behavior, segment length, and cartilage integrity. Operative intervention was selected based on phenotype and structural characteristics. The primary outcome was successful decannulation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Twenty\u2010five patients underwent 28 procedures. Mean age at first intervention was 6.3 years (range 0.8\u201021.2 years). Anterior or combined collapse was present in 18 patients and treated with primary anterior closure (n\u2009=\u20095), anterior external bioresorbable stent reinforcement (n\u2009=\u20094), tracheal resection and reconstruction (n\u2009=\u20097), or slide tracheoplasty (n\u2009=\u20092); all were successfully decannulated. Posterior collapse (n\u2009=\u20094) treated with posterior external stent tracheopexy achieved 75% decannulation. Lateral collapse (n\u2009=\u20093) treated with vertical external stenting achieved 100% decannulation. Overall decannulation success was 92%.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Suprastomal collapse represents a heterogeneous spectrum of localized airway instability rather than a uniform pathologic entity.
