Clinical evaluation the success rate and complications of fluoroscopically guided removal of tracheal tube metallic stents
BACKGROUND: Long-term placement of airway stents has a high probability of restenosis of the airway due to granulation tissue hyperplasia, and it is difficult to remove the stent. Our aim is to evaluate the success rate and complications of removal of tracheal tube metallic stents under fluoroscopic...

description | BACKGROUND: Long-term placement of airway stents has a high probability of restenosis of the airway due to granulation tissue hyperplasia, and it is difficult to remove the stent. Our aim is to evaluate the success rate and complications of removal of tracheal tube metallic stents under fluoroscopic guidance, and to compare the difference between uncovered stent and covered stent. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 45 cases (31 males and 14 females; age, 12–71 years) of tracheal metallic stent removal performed at our center between January 2014 and December 2019. Covered stents were applied in 36 cases, and uncovered stents were applied in 9 cases. In the covered stent group, 15 patients presented with granulation tissue at both ends; 3 cases, with stent fracture; and 2, with stent intolerance due to severe airway foreign body sensation. In the uncovered stents group, all patients presented with granulation tissue formation; 2 patients, with stent fracture; and 1 patient, with stent intolerance. RESULTS: A total of 41 (91.1%) stents were successfully removed (34 [94.4%] in the covered stent group and 7 [77.8%] in the uncovered stent group). The average duration of stent placement was 3.2 ± 0.7 and 2.5 ± 1.2 months in the covered stent group and uncovered stent group, respectively. With regard to the complications, hemoptysis occurred in 4 cases (average blood volume lost, 100 ml), tracheal mucosa tear occurred in 5 cases, tracheal collapse requiring emergency airway stent placement occurred in 1 case, and tracheal rupture requiring emergency surgical suture occurred in 1 case. No procedure-related deaths occurred in either group. CONCLUSIONS: It is safe to remove the metal stent of the tracheal tube under the guidance of fluoroscopy, with low complications, and can avoid the long-term placement of the airway stent. |
