Project description

The health emergency caused by COVID-19 led to a surge in the use of procedures such as tracheostomy, resulting in a corresponding rise in complications like tracheal stenosis. With advancements in tracheal reconstruction techniques, tracheal stents have been proposed as an alternative treatment option, offering distinct advantages such as minimally invasive placement and adaptability to various clinical conditions.
