Abstract
|
|
|
Pneumothorax and pulmonary edema can be produced as a complication during general anesthesia. The former which occurs during pressure ventilation is highly dangerous. It is char acterized by a dramatic onset which is readily recongnized and
demands
immediate management. The latter may be developed after the upper airway obstruction has been relived due to the reduction of the intersitial hydrostatic pressure and increased capillary permeability. We experienced a case of pneumothorax and
pulmonary
edema that occurred after treatment for upper airway obstruction.
