Abstract:
:Intractable aspiration is a life-threatening medical problem. There are many surgical procedures for the treatment of intractable aspiration. Our experience with three children was reported here. After failing initial conservative measures, the first two patients had supraglottic laryngeal closure performed through an endoscopic approach with a small hole left superiorly for phonation. However, both of them developed dehiscence of the closure postoperatively, necessitating a more definitive procedure to stop the aspiration. Their symptoms of aspiration were only relieved after they underwent laryngotracheal separation. In the third child, laryngotracheal separation was performed as the initial procedure and the symptoms of recurrent aspiration were relieved. In conclusion, the treatment of intractable aspiration requires a definitive procedure from the outset and we would suggest, based on literature review and on our experience, that laryngotracheal separation is the most effective and reliable option, albeit lack of phonation is inevitable. A comprehensive review of all procedures used for treatment of this condition was also undertaken.
