Compression Stenosis Of The TracheaCategory: CHRONIC STENOSIS OF THE LARYNX AND TRACHEA Source: A Manual Of Peroral Endoscopy And Laryngeal Surgery Decannulation in these cases can only follow the removal of the compressive mass, which may be thymic, neoplastic, hypertrophic or inflammatory. Glandular disease may be of the Hodgkins' type. Thymic compression yields readily to radium and the roentgenray, and the tuberculous and leukemic adenitides are sometimes favorably influenced by the same agents. Surgery will relieve the compression of struma and benign neoplasms, and may be indicated in certain neoplasms of malignant origin. The possible coexistence of laryngeal paralysis with tracheal compression is frequently overlooked by the surgeon. Monolateral or bilateral paralysis of the larynx is by no means an uncommon postoperative sequel to thyroidectomy, even though the recurrent nerves have been in no way injured at operation. Probably a localized neuritis, a cicatricial traction, or inclusion of a nerve trunk accounts for most of these cases. Hyperplastic and cicatricial chronic stenoses preventing decannulation may be classified etiologically as follows: 1. Tuberculosis 2. Lues 3. Scleroma 4. Acute infectious diseases (a) Diphtheria (b) Typhoid fever (c) Scarlet fever (d) Measles (e) Pertussis 5. Decubitus (a) Cannular (b) Tubal 6. Trauma (a) Tracheotomic (b) Intubational (c) Operative (d) Suicidal and homicidal (e) Accidental (by foreign bodies, external violence, bullets, etc.) Most of the organic stenoses, other than the paralytic and neoplastic forms, are the result of inflammation, often with ulceration and secondary changes in the cartilages or the soft tissues.
