Abstract
Percutaneous tracheotomy is a surgical procedure for inserting a tracheal cannula into the tracheal lumen without a large incision, without extensive dissection of pretracheal tissue and without exposure of the trachea. Ciaglia's report on the procedure a decade ago led to this technique gaining popularity, although its origin is much older.Keywords
