A preliminary biomechanical study on trachea reconstruction surgery using the clavicular periosteum
Introduction: The clavicular periosteum is a suitable material for trachea reconstruction. However, because the periosteum is softer and has different mechanical properties than tracheal cartilage, the mechanical loads under physiological conditions after trachea reconstruction may cause collapse or...
