Résumé : In the authors' series of 23 patients, operated on 27 times, for an iatrogenic stenosis of the trachea, there were 4 deaths by hemorrhage of the innominate artery. Three resulted from shearing of the artery by the tracheal sutures. One came from erosion by a tracheostomy cannula. This fatal complication should be prevented by preserving healthy tissues between the artery and the trachea.
