Molecular stratification of subglottic stenosis to identify therapeutic pathways

Subglottic stenosis (SGS) is a progressive fibrotic disease that causes narrowing of the subglottic trachea. Causes are autoimmune (granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) or ANCA-negative vasculitis), iatrogenic (after intubation or trauma) or idiopathic, with an incidence of 1 in 400 000 patients per year[1].
