Postintubation tracheal stenoses typically involve a single segment of the trachea and are treated by resection and anastomosis. This report presents a rare case of tracheal stenosis affecting 2 distinct segments of the trachea. A 16-year-old girl experienced severe postintubation tracheal stenosis following 2 prolonged intubations. The patient underwent staged resection and anastomosis. The first operation addressed the distal stenosis (intrathoracic). After the failure of non-surgical methods to relieve the proximal stenosis, the second resection was performed. The patient recovered with no signs of airway stenosis or voice problems during a 6-month follow-up period.
