Background:Benign cicatricial airway stenosis (BCAS) is a life-threatening disease.While there are numerous therapies,all have their defects,and stenosis can easily become recurrent.This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and complications of nonstent combination interventional therapy (NSCIT) when used for the treatment of BCAS of different causes and types.Methods:This study enrolled a cohort of patients with BCAS resulting from tuberculosis,intubation,tracheotomy,and other origins.The patients were assigned to three groups determined by their type of stenosis:Web-like stenosis,granulation stenosis,and complex stenosis,and all patients received NSCIT.The efficacy and complications of treatment in each group of patients were observed.The Chi-square test,one-factor analysis of variance (ANOVA),and the paired t-test were used to analyze different parameters.Results:The 10 patients with web-like stenosis and six patients with granulation stenosis exhibited durable remission rates of 100％.Among 41 patients with complex stenosis,36 cases (88％) experienced remission and 29 cases (71％) experienced durable remission.When five patients with airway collapse were eliminated from the analysis,the overall remission rate was 97％.The average treatment durations for patients with web-like stenosis,granulation stenosis,and complex stenosis were 101,21,and 110 days,respectively,and the average number of treatments was five,two,and five,respectively.Conclusions:NSCIT demonstrated good therapeutic efficacy and was associated with few complications.However,this approach was ineffective for treating patients with airway collapse or malacia.
