Abstract :
Incidence of post-intubation tracheal stenoses is relatively high in Iran and the majority of tracheal surgeries are performed to
treat these strictures. Therefore, it is important to become familiar with the nature of tracheal stenoses and know their
treatment methods. Most surgeons learn different methods of tracheal surgery through operating on cases of post-intubation
tracheal stenoses and apply these methods for surgical operation of tracheal tumors. We mainly focused on the technique of
tracheal surgery, patient selection, and pre-op and post-op equipments required. Other related fields such as anatomy of the
trachea, bronchoscopy, imaging, laser therapy and stenting are mentioned when necessary.
