Abstract:
Morphometric investigations on trachea kinetics in man and beagle dogs were undertaken to find out the range of motility in different moving planes. The results show a special mechanism of load distribution over the whole organ during movement. The minimal and the mean values for bending and torsion were recorded and made reproducible for to examine a trachea prosthesis in laboratory tester on its suitability for organ replacement.
