Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study compares the effectiveness of Coblation-assisted endoscopic airway dilatation with the modified Maddern procedure-which involves endoscopic excision of scar tissue followed by buccal mucosal grafting-in patients with subglottic and/or upper tracheal stenosis.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Coblation-assisted dilatation group

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Coblation-assisted dilatation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

endoscopic Coblation-assisted dilatation is done for subglottic and / or upper tracheal stenosis. Radial incisions are done using the coblation technique, followed by balloon dilatation.

Modified Maddern procedure group

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Modified Maddern procedure

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

endoscopic excision of the scar tissue is done in patients with subglottic and / or upper tracheal stenosis. The resultant raw surface is covered with a buccal mucosal graft harvested from the patient cheek mucosa. The donor site is closed by primary suturing.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* All consecutive patients with (grade II, III) subglottic and/or upper tracheal stenosis according to Myer-Cotton grading system
* all age groups (children and adults)

Exclusion Criteria

* Patients with cervical spine diseases where an extended position during the procedure could be problematic.
* Previous neck or oral cavity irradiation.
* chronic uncontrolled debilitating diseases that might interfere with the healing process e.g. (diabetes mellitus, renal failure, decompensated liver diseases).
