Accepted for publication December 23, 1995.

We report an infant with severe long-segment tracheal stenosis in whom the posterior trachea was formed by complete cartilage rings and the anterior trachea was almost totally formed by a solid cartilage plate. The child was successfully treated initially by complete resection of the trachea and primary end-to-end repair and subsequently with tracheal homograft transplantation for secondary stenosis.
