Abstract
|
|
|
|
One-lung ventilation with a double-lumen endotracheal tube or a Univent? tube may be difficult or dangerous in small patients, children, and patients with anatomic abnormalities of the airway. The use of a bronchial blocker through a single-lumen endotracheal tube has been used successfully in such situations.A 69-year-old woman was scheduled for Ivor-Lewis operation and right upper lobectomy.She could not be intubated with a internal diameter 6.0 mm Univent? tube owing to narrow diameter of the vocal cord. We report a successful one-lung ventilation using a Uniblocker? through an adult-size single-lumen endotracheal tube in a small woman, who needed postoperative ventilator care.
