Abstract
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The secondary injury may present weeks to months after the initial insult and repeat
bronchoscopy, and long‐term follow‐up is required for the respiratory complications
of CSI. Ingestion of caustic fluid may cause severe tracheal stenosis. Repeated airway
dilatation may be a lifesaving intervention until such point that surgery can be
performed.
