Stens are a tubular device for use in trachea, carina or main bronchus to provide a support and maintain the permeability of these structures. There are two groups: Metallic and Silicone stent. Either metallic and silicone stents has a special properties. Metallic stent are very attractive option due to relative easy in their placement.
The accumulated experience in this therapy has allowed to recognize several complications to take into consideration mainly in patients with tracheal benign stenosis. FDA has recommended don‘t use metallic stents, covered and not covered in benign diseases. We report a case of a tracheal stenosis secundary to prolonged otrotracheal intubation that required extensive interventions to control symptoms of central airway obstruction, between April and July of 2005.
