Tracheostomy in acute obstructive laryngitis

TRACHEOSTOMY is one of the oldest lifesaving procedures known to history. Egyptian tablets (of approximately B.C. 3600) probably represent tracheostomies and Araetaeus and Galen (in approximately B.C. 300-100) have given credible descriptions of the operation. Retrospective investigation of the period 1546-1833 A.D. show that only twenty-eight successful^ tracheostomies were carried out during these years, but in 1833, Trousseau reported a personal experience of about 200 tracheostomies, of which one quarter were successful.
