OBJECTIVE To describe outcomes from laryngotracheal reconstruction and decannulation rates for patients undergoing single stage, double stage and hybrid staged procedures at a single tertiary care institution and evaluate if the 1.5LTR is a viable reconstructive option for patients with subglottic stenosis. METHODS Retrospective chart review. METHODS Tertiary care otolaryngology specialty hospital and internationally. METHODS All patients who underwent LTR by a single pediatric otolaryngology surgeon from 2008 to 2018. METHODS Charts were assessed for age, gender, etiology, type of reconstruction, comorbidities, length of stay, tracheostomy status and socioeconomic status. Analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel and multivariate logistic regression models. RESULTS 96 patients underwent laryngotracheal reconstruction at MEEI. Internationally, 36 patients underwent laryngotracheal reconstruction with the primary surgeon. Overall decannulation rates for ssLTR, dsLTR, and 1.5LTR were 95.6%, 77.8%, and 91.2% respectively. Our Operation Specific Decannulation Rates (one open airway procedure only) for ssLTR, dsLTR, and 1.5LTR were 87.5%, 33%, and 88% respectively. Adjusted odds of decannulation were not significantly different between males and females, white and non-white patients, or socioeconomic status. Neurological comorbidity was statistically significant for a decreased rate of decannulation (p = 0.0216). CONCLUSIONS The 1.5LTR is a viable option for airway reconstruction with strengths derived from both the ssLTR and dsLTR. At our institution we have seen decannulation rates and operation specific decannulation rates with the 1.5LTR approaching our ssLTR. It has replaced the bulk of our dsLTRs, which we reserve for patients that have significant neurological deficits and cannot tolerate extended sedation. METHODS 4.

D012189 Retrospective Studies Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.

D015897 Comorbidity The presence of co-existing or additional diseases with reference to an initial diagnosis or with reference to the index condition that is the subject of study. Comorbidity may affect the ability of affected individuals to function and also their survival; it may be used as a prognostic indicator for length of hospital stay, cost factors, and outcome or survival.
