A Taha, and A Fatt-hi, and M A Kadir, and T Soliman

In Egypt, sub-glottic stenosis is commonly caused by scleromatous affection. The countries in which scleroma is endemic have been reviewed. The incidence of scleroma, laryngeal scleroma, and sub-glottic affection, and their sex ratios have been discussed. Radiological study of the sub-glottic extension has been done. The operative procedures are detailed and the results are presented. The use of the Montgomery T-tube is an essential part of all these operations. The excision of scar tissue from the sub-glottic region was done in children, and this accords with recent trends. Twenty cases have been operated upon, with airway improvement in all of them.
