Abstract

The authors review the various types of treatment involving drugs and physical agents used for the non-surgical therapy of laryngotracheal stenosis. They emphasize three interesting propositions: the use of zinc sulphate, of lathyrogens and muscle relaxants, an extensive experimental study of which would be worthwhile in the particular context of laryngotracheal stenosis.
