A case of chronic appendicitis

Objective & Hypothesis:Endotracheal tube related problems can occur during general anesthetic procedures.These problems frequently consist of difficult intubation, bronchial intubation, esophageal intubation, extubation and secretion related airway obstruction.

📊

Key Findings & Data:An exceptional reason is a dissection in the cuff line narrowing or obstructing the lumen of the tube.

💡

Conclusion & Impact:We aimed to report severe airway obstruction in two cases due to dissection of the endotracheal tube.

🔬Design:Research Article

📍Scope:Comprehensive Sample

Abstract

Endotracheal tube related problems can occur during general anesthetic procedures.These problems frequently consist of difficult intubation, bronchial intubation, esophageal intubation, extubation and secretion related airway obstruction. An exceptional reason is a dissection in the cuff line narrowing or obstructing the lumen of the tube. We aimed to report severe airway obstruction in two cases due to dissection of the endotracheal tube.

Özet

Genel anestezi uygulamaları sırasında entübasyon ile ilgili sorunlar olabilmektedir. Bunlar sıklıkla güç entübasyon, bronş entübasyonu, özofagus entübasyonu, entübasyon tüpünün trakeadan çıkması, sekresyon nedeniyle tıkanmasıdır. Çok ender bir nedense, entübasyon tüpünün kaf şişirme yolunda meydana gelen disseksiyon sonucu tüpün içten daralmasıdır. Bu sunumumuzda iki hastada ameliyat sırasında entübasyon tüpü disseksiyonuna bağlı gelişen ciddi hava yolu tıkanıklığı tablosunu değerlendirmeyi amaçladık.
