Abstract
|
|
|
A technique for insertion of a long silicone T-tube in patient with critical stenosis and high-risk resection and primary anastomosis of long segment of the distal trachea is presented. It was not easy to insert a long T-tube by existing methods
because
of flexibility of a T-tube and tightness of stenosis. So we used a silastic endotracheal tube and guiding wire as stylet of a T-tube. During insertion, ventilation was normally maintained through the lumen of endotracheal tube. This provided
rapid
relief from airway obstruction and asphyxation and is a easy, safe and effective method to restore patency of the major airways. (Korean J Thoracic Cardiovas Surg 1993;26:664-6)
