Abstract

Abstract: Endoscopic laryngeal tracheal reconstruction was performed on a child with glottic stenosis and pulmonary arterial hypertension. The surgical repair was performed while delivering inhaled nitric oxide via the ventilating port of a suspension laryngoscope with the patient maintaining spontaneous respirations. The surgery was accomplished without complications.
