Abstract
Single-stage reconstructive surgery resulted in 96% good-to-excellent results. Recalcitrant stenosis developed in 4% of patients. Stents, postoperative edema, mitomycin use, and vocal cord involvement are risks for recurrence. Recurrence was related to reactivation of disease in 14 patients and to technical problems in 6 patients.
