Demographic and clinical data of the patients, radiological imaging, and laboratory results and operative and postoperative follow-up data were recorded.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic>Results:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    The most common reason for intubation among the patients included in the study was trauma. All patients had stridor. Twenty-six (59.1%) patients had at least one comorbidity. Stenosis was located in the upper half of the trachea in 33 (75%) and in the lower half of the trachea in 11 (25%) patients. The length of the tracheal segment removed during surgery was &lt;3 cm in 26 (59.1%) and &gt;3 cm in 18 (40.9%) patients. A total of 16 (36%) patients developed complications. Complications were more frequent in patients with a history of preoperative tracheostomy, presence of comorbidities and resection of the upper half of the trachea. The patients did not receive jaw-neck sutures thanks to the use of retention sutures in our clinic. The median length of stay in the hospital was 5 (range, 4 to 16) days.\n                  <\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>\n                    <jats:bold>\n                      <jats:italic>Conclusion:<\/jats:italic>\n                    <\/jats:bold>\n                    Significant predisposing factors for complications include preoperative tracheostomy history, comorbidities and resection of the upper half of the trachea. In our study, the patients did not receive jaw-neck sutures thanks to the use of retention sutures, which increased patient comfort in the postoperative period and decreased the frequency of anastomosis-related complications.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5606\/tgkdc.dergisi.2025.26979","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,24]],"date-time":"2025-02-24T01:21:52Z","timestamp":1740360112000},"page":"68-76","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Surgical outcomes following tracheal reconstruction in patients with post-intubation tracheal stenosis"],"prefix":"10.4274","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Mustafa","family":"S\u0131sman","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Omer","family":"Topaloglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sami","family":"Karapolat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Atila","family":"Turkyilmaz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ali","family":"Akdogan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Celal","family":"Tekinbas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"2811","reference":[{"key":"ref-1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Belsey R.
