Bronchoscopic assessment included vocal cords, subglottic area, position of the trachea, posterior membrane ratio to whole circumference, cartilage shape, and tracheal collapse.
Tracheomalacia assessment was performed in two phases of breathing: spontaneous breathing and while applying a Valsalva maneuver or applying negative pressure.
Preoperative determination of the need for aortopexy may alleviate chronic respiratory conditions and decrease the risk of future surgical intervention.
