Abstract

Endoscopic trachea stenting is a pressing issue in modern endoscopy. This method is applied in various diseases including benign stenoses associated with complications after long-term mechanical ventilation, malignant stenoses (oncological diseases of the trachea itself, compression from outside by esophageal or mediastinal tumors), post-injury stenoses and developmental defects.

Currently, a certain contingent of patients exists for whom trachea prosthesis and its bifurcation remain the only possible option for stepwise or final treatment. If the lower third of the trachea, bifurcation zone or the main bronchi are affected, the optimal technique is stenting with Y-shaped stents which provide maximal patency of the airways.
