Abstract

Fusion of vertebral bones in ankylosing spondylitis causes flexibility loss in the neck and back. In advanced stages of the disease, airway management can be difficult due to the ankylosis of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar vertebrae. In this paper, we report the awake fiber–optic nasotracheal intubation of a patient with expected difficult airway due to ankylosing spondylitis, whose extremely limited mouth opening and neck mobility required an urgent tracheostomy, causing respiratory distress.

Özet

Ankilozan spondilitte omurga kemiklerinin füzyonu ile sırt ve boyunda esneklik kaybı gelişir.Hastalığın ileri evrelerinde servikal, torakal ve lumbal vertebraların ankilozu nedeniyle havayoluyönetiminde zorluklarla karşılaşılabilir. Bu sunumda, solunum sıkıntısı nedeniyle acil trakeostomigerektiren ve ağız açıklığı ile boyun hareketlerinin ileri derecede kısıtlı oluşu nedeniyle zorhavayolu beklenen ankilozan spondilitli bir hastaya uyanıkken uygulanan fiberoptik nazotrakealentübasyon anlatılmıştır.
