Diphtheria stenosis
Despite the success of serum therapy, laryngeal diphtheria is one of the most serious diseases of childhood and causes high mortality rates. Questions about surgical intervention in cereals, the use of intubation or tracheotomy are still unresolved, despite the numerous and seemingly comprehensive data on the benefits of intubation. The fact that some authors, while expressing their negative attitude towards intubation, do not stop at the assessment of the factual material adds a lot of ambiguity to the resolution of these issues. From this point of view, we did not feel it unnecessary to summarise our clinical material over 4 years.
