Abstract

Invalidating tracheal collapse occurred in a 55-year-old male farmer after extirpation of an intrathoracic goitre. The collapse was successfully treated by a new modification of supportive surgery developed by us, viz. circumferential application of heavy Marles mesh (Davol Inc., Box 8500, Cranston, R. I. 02920, USA) around the trachea.
