Fig 1 Evolution of stomal stenosis is shown in cross-sectional diagrams of the trachea at the stomal site. (A) The tracheostomy tube may be leveraged against the stomal margins, causing their erosion. (B) The resulting large stoma exhibits granulations and inflammation at its margins. (C) Contraction of scar tissue forming across the defect pulls the tracheal stomal margins to the midline. (D) The result is an A-shaped lumen. The posterior wall is also often shortened. Scar tissue is present, in more anteriorly only. Taken from Hermes C. Grillo, Surgery of the Trachea and Bronchi. Illustrations by Edith Tagrin. Shelton, CT: PMPH-USA, Ltd.
