    A novel surgical technique for permanent tracheal fenestration using cervical skin and tracheal flaps offers a quick, simple, and reversible one-stage solution. This procedure shows promise for patients with various airway conditions, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and sleep apnea.

    Area of Science:

    • Surgical innovation in airway management.
    • Otolaryngology and thoracic surgery applications.

    Background:

    • Existing methods for tracheal fenestration may be complex or irreversible.
    • Need for effective airway access in patients with laryngeal fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and sleep apnea.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a new, simple, one-stage method for permanent tracheal fenestration.
    • To assess the safety and reversibility of the described surgical technique.

    Main Methods:

    • A novel technique utilizing cervical skin and tracheal flaps for permanent tracheal fenestration.
    • The procedure was performed as a single-stage operation.

    Main Results:

    • The procedure was successfully performed on four patients.
