Disease Features burn involving larynx and trachea with lung
Absence or low individual and public risk
Burn involving larynx and trachea with lung - what does this mean
Burns involving larynx and trachea with lung typically occur when a person is exposed to a high temperature source such as fire, steam, hot liquids, or hot gases, and the heat energy causes damage to the airway tissues. this can lead to airway swelling, which can cause narrowing of the airway and difficulty breathing. in severe cases, the airway can become completely obstructed, leading to respiratory failure and death.
What happens during the disease - burn involving larynx and trachea with lung
The pathogenesis of burn involving the larynx and trachea with lung is a complex process that involves direct thermal injury to the airway, inhalation of heated gases, and aspiration of hot liquids. this causes direct tissue damage to the airway mucosa, leading to inflammation, edema, and necrosis. in addition, the heat can cause direct thermal injury to the lung parenchyma, leading to acute lung injury. the inflammatory response to the injury can lead to further airway obstruction, bronchospasm, and increased airway resistance. this can then lead to hypoxia, atelectasis, and ultimately, pulmonary edema and respiratory failure.
Clinical Pattern

How does a doctor diagnose
- Physical examination of the larynx and trachea
- Throat swab for culture
- Chest X-ray
- CT scan of the chest
- Bronchoscopy
- Sputum culture
- Pulmonary function tests
- Blood tests
- Laryngoscopy
- Biopsy of the affected area
Treatment and Medical Assistance
Main goal of the treatment: Treating the burn involving larynx, trachea, and lung.
- Administer antibiotics to prevent infection
- Administer pain medication to reduce discomfort
- Perform bronchoscopy to assess the extent of the burn
- Perform tracheostomy to maintain airway
- Provide supplemental oxygen
- Administer intravenous fluids to maintain hydration
- Perform esophagoscopy to assess damage to esophagus
- Perform laryngoscopy to assess damage to larynx
- Perform tracheal resection and anastomosis to repair damaged trachea
- Perform lung resection and anastomosis to repair damaged lung
- Perform tracheal reconstruction to restore airway
- Perform bronchial reconstruction to restore airway
18 Days of Hospitalization Required
Average Time for Outpatient Care Not Established
Burn involving larynx and trachea with lung - Prevention
Prevention of burn involving larynx, trachea, and lung can be achieved by avoiding contact with open flames, hot liquids, and other sources of heat. additionally, wearing protective clothing and gear when working with hazardous materials can help reduce the risk of such burns.
