Abstract: Objective This study aimed to explore the pathogenesis, diagnostic criteria, and treatments for tracheal defects. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of a patient with a large tracheal defect caused by a mediastinal tumor using a three-dimensionally(3D)printed titanium prosthesis and summarizing relevant literature. Results Repairing large tracheal defects has always been a clinical challenge. Using 3D-printed titanium tracheal prostheses for tracheal defect repair can personalize and restore a patient's normal physiological structure and have stable mechanical properties. Prosthesis use can effectively prevent airway collapse, and its pre-designed customized shape fits the patient better, shortening operation time and reducing postoperative complications. Conclusion In the treatment of large tracheal defects, 3D-printed titanium tracheal prostheses have greater advantages than traditional repair methods, bringing new hope for patients with large tracheal defects.
