Novel endoscopic suturing technique to mitigate risk of graft extrusion in endoscopic posterior cricoid split and costal cartilage grafting: A case report

Posterior cricoid split with costal cartilage grafting is a well-established technique for the management of subglottic stenosis (SGS), posterior glottic stenosis (PGS), and bilateral vocal fold immobility (BVFI) in children [1 –3]. Though traditionally performed through an open transcervical approach, endoscopic posterior cricoid split with costal cartilage grafting (EPCSCG), a minimally invasive surgical option with low morbidity, has become increasingly common for posterior glottic and subglottic airway expansion in p ediatric patients.
