Congenital tracheal stenosis (CTS) is a condition difficult to manage and associated with a high mortality rate. The principles of one-stage laryngotracheoplasty have been adapted to the surgical management of CTS. Three children underwent a one-stage anterior tracheoplasty with costal cartilage grafting and without cardiopulmonary bypass. Extubation was performed within 13 days. One child developed granulation tissue one month postoperatively, and this was removed endoscopically. The three children were free of respiratory obstruction signs during follow-up ranging from 8 months to 3 years. Postoperative endoscopies have shown growth of the grafted trachea.
