Abstract: Objective This study aimed to investigate the clinical value of two-stage reconstructive strategy using a flap for the treatment of non-circumferential tracheal defects. Methods Patients who underwent tracheal reconstructions with a two-stage reconstructive strategy using a flap between March 2013 and December 2018 were retrospectively evaluated. Results Thirty-seven patients, with a tracheal defect length of 6-14 tracheal rings and circumferential ratio of 1/2 to 3/4, underwent stage I surgery. Twenty-two free flaps and 15 pedicled flaps were used in the stage I surgery, and the sizes of the flap ranged from 6×4 cm to 12×9 cm. Thirty-three patients underwent stage II surgery, and the postoperative respiratory, deglutition, and articulation functions recovered satisfactorily. Conclusion The two-stage reconstructive strategy using a flap is safe and effective for the treatment of non-circumferential tracheal defects.
