Abstract

Certain congenital craniofacial malformations can cause upper airway obstruction. Due to neurological involvement, these craniofacial deformities with upper airway blockage frequently require tracheostomy. Children who need weeks or months of continuous ventilator assistance require tracheostomies, which improve pulmonary toilet and decrease laryngotracheal lesions such subglottic stenosis and tracheomalacia. In this case report we will be discussing about two patients who underwent Pediatric tracheostomy for Pierre Robin sequence and supraglottic stenosis in our institute. This paper emphasizes on some of the rare causes of pediatric upper airway obstruction - Pierre Robin sequence and supraglottic stenosis. Also the importance of tracheostomy procedure, which is the gold standard for management of upper airway obstruction in patients who are not responding to conservative management is emphasized.

病例系列-小儿气管切开术治疗上气道阻塞。

某些先天性颅面畸形可引起上气道阻塞。由于神经系统受累，这些颅面畸形伴有上气道阻塞，通常需要气管切开术。需要连续数周或数月呼吸机辅助的儿童需要气管造口术，这可以改善肺便便性，减少声门下狭窄和气管软化等喉气管病变。在这个病例报告中，我们将讨论两名在我们研究所因Pierre Robin序列和声门上狭窄接受小儿气管切开术的患者。本文着重介绍了引起小儿上气道阻塞的几种罕见原因——Pierre Robin序列和声门上狭窄。同时强调了气管切开术的重要性，这是在保守治疗无效的患者中处理上气道阻塞的金标准。补充资料:在线版本提供补充资料，网址为10.1007/s12070-023-03892-1。

期刊介绍： Molecular Breeding is an international journal publishing papers on applications of plant molecular biology, i.e., research most likely leading to practical applications. The practical applications might relate to the Developing as well as the industrialised World and have demonstrable benefits for the seed industry, farmers, processing industry, the environment and the consumer. All papers published should contribute to the understanding and progress of modern plant breeding, encompassing the scientific disciplines of molecular biology, biochemistry, genetics, physiology, pathology, plant breeding, and ecology among others. Molecular Breeding welcomes the following categories of papers: full papers, short communications, papers describing novel methods and review papers. All submission will be subject to peer review ensuring the highest possible scientific quality standards. Molecular Breeding core areas: Molecular Breeding will consider manuscripts describing contemporary methods of molecular genetics and genomic analysis, structural and functional genomics in crops, proteomics and metabolic profiling, abiotic stress and field evaluation of transgenic crops containing particular traits. Manuscripts on marker assisted breeding are also of major interest, in particular novel approaches and new results of marker assisted breeding, QTL cloning, integration of conventional and marker assisted breeding, and QTL studies in crop plants.
