Short-term perceived quality of life after surgical resection for benign tracheal stenosis: a pre-post intervention study
Surgical intervention for tracheal stenosis significantly enhances perceived patients' QoL, particularly in general functionality and psychological well-being areas. The results indicate that patients with a history of Covid-19 may experience a more pronounced recovery. Despite the risk of early postoperative complications, the overall improvement in QoL supports the effectiveness of surgical treatment.
