The development and improvement of tracheal stents, as an effective treatment for respiratory diseases such as tracheal stenosis and tracheal collapse, has been a hot topic in the field of medical engineering. In vitro testing and animal experiments are key steps in evaluating the performance and safety of tracheal stents. This paper reviews the in vitro testing methods, animal experimental models, current research status, and future directions of tracheal stents, aiming to provide research directions for the development and in vitro and in vivo testing of tracheal stents.
