Abstract
Various methods of treating laryngeal stenosis have been described in the literature. The usual techniques are Skin grafting insertion of stents or moulds or repeated dilatation. A permanent tracheostomy is often the final answer. The buccal mucous membrane has been used as a graft in two of our cases. The results with this method are satisfactory.
