Since the appearance of SARSCoV-2 disease, paradigms have changed in medical science, and we are currently facing the long-term repercussions that some of the patients develop. Within the group of patients who have had severe pneumonia - Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to SARSCoV-2 and who required orotracheal intubation (OTI), multisystemic complications are documented (1-4), in In this article, we will highlight airway-related complications that occur in the form of benign stenosis, with simple or complex subglottic lesions being the most common. We present a case of a patient who presented tracheal stenosis post-OTI due to severe COVID-19 pneumonia as main diagnosis, follow-up, and management by a multidisciplinary airway group.
