Anaesthetic management of tracheal tear
شماره ركورد

Abstract
Tracheal tear is an uncommon but a serious injury that may be lethal because of the difficulties of accurate anatomical diagnosis and perioperative airway management. A high degree of suspicion is essential to identify these cases and early intervention is associated with better outcome. The anaesthesiologist managing such a case should be aware of the difficulties during securing the airway and during repair of trachea. Proper planning and keeping back up plans ready helps in successful management of these patients. The anaesthetic management needs to be modified during repair of the trachea by using total intravenous anaesthesia and insertion of an endotracheal tube in the trachea distal to the tear.
