Laryngotracheal stenosis is a common pediatric disease with complex etiologies, and its severe condition poses a life-threatening risk. Open laryngotracheoplasty serves as the key therapeutic intervention. Given the high requirements for perioperative management and the operator's surgical proficiency, numerous issues requiring standardization persist in clinical practice.
