Abstract:

Accurate anatomical data of the trachea and bronchi is not only vital in the field of anthropometry but also contributes to the optimization of complex thoracic surgeries. These anatomical data set the theoretical foundation for the diagnosis and treatment of airway diseases. Prior human airway anatomical data, influenced by factors such as era, region, as well as the subject and methods of measurement, show considerable variation. This paper reviews both domestic and international studies on the anatomical parameters of the trachea and bronchi, as well as their measurement techniques, with the aim of providing a reference for the conduct of related clinical and scientific research.

Key words: Airway, Tracheal length, Tracheal angle, Anatomical parameters, Tracheal resection and reconstruction
