Abstract
Tracheal cancer is rare and one-third of patients are treated with palliative care. The available curative treatment consists of resection/anastomosis and elicits good results. However, this surgery is complicated by the presence of large areas of tracheal lesions. This study proffers a new advance: a substitute trachea which can be transplanted and may prove useful in the treatment of these large areas of tumors.
