Abstract
|
|
|
|
Pulmonary edema following the relief of an upper airway obstruction is a rare and unpredictable clinical entity. Post-obstructive pulmonary edema develops immediately after the onset of acute airway obstruction such as laryngospasm or epiglottitis(type Ⅰ) or after the relief of chronic upper airway obstruction such as adenotonsillar hypertrophy(type Ⅱ). We report a case of negative pressure pulmonary edema developed immediately after extubation in 53-year-old male patient undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia.
