CLINICAL EXPERIENCES IN HYOID ARCH TRANSPOSITION

Abstract
Autogenous hyoid bone grafts for the repair of subglottic stenosis have been used successfully in canine experiments. This technique was subsequently modified for human use, and the experience in six patients over the past year at Washington University is reported. In five of the six patients, satisfactory results were obtained. Several case reports are included, and the surgical procedure is described in detail.
