Iatrogenic Left Main Bronchus Injury following Atraumatic Double Lumen Endotracheal Tube Placement.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Hartman WR, Brown M, Hannon J.
PMID: 24288629

Tracheobronchial disruption is an uncommon but severe complication of double lumen endotracheal tube placement. The physical properties of a double lumen tube (large external diameter and length) make tracheobronchial injury more common than that associated with smaller single lumen...

Bronchoesophageal Fistula Stenting Using High-Frequency Jet Ventilation and Underwater Seal Gastrostomy Tube Drainage.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Fokeerah N, Liu X, Hao Y, Peng L.
PMID: 27672454
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2016;2016:8175127. doi: 10.1155/2016/8175127. Epub 2016 Sep 08.

Managing a patient scheduled for bronchoesophageal fistula repair is challenging for the anesthetist. If appropriate ventilation strategy is not employed, serious complications such as hypoxemia, gastric distension, and pulmonary aspiration can occur. We present the case of a 62-year-old...

Management of Residual Neuromuscular Blockade Recovery: Age-Old Problem with a New Solution.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Green MS, Venkatesh AG, Venkataramani R.
PMID: 28392946
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2017;2017:8197035. doi: 10.1155/2017/8197035. Epub 2017 Mar 14.

Neostigmine has been traditionally used as the agent of choice to reverse Neuromuscular Blockade (NMB) after muscle paralysis during general anesthesia. However, the use of neostigmine has not been without untoward events. Sugammadex is a novel drug that selectively...

Axillary block as the sole anesthetic for peripherally inserted central catheter placement in an infant with goldenhar syndrome.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Bernardo-Ocampo MC.
PMID: 24371529
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2013;2013:956807. doi: 10.1155/2013/956807. Epub 2013 Nov 25.

The use of peripheral nerve block as the sole anesthetic in infants is not very common. Studies have demonstrated that ultrasound guided (USG) peripheral nerve block is associated with higher overall success rate when compared with nerve stimulation (Rubin...

Nosocomial Methemoglobinemia Resulting from Self-Administration of Benzocaine Spray.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Hoffman C, Abubakar H, Kalikiri P, Green M.
PMID: 26605091
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2015;2015:685304. doi: 10.1155/2015/685304. Epub 2015 Oct 28.

Methemoglobinemia is life-threatening and bears pathognomonic signs difficult to diagnose in real time. Local anesthetics are widely used and are known for eliciting this condition. We report a case of methemoglobinemia secondary to self-administered use of benzocaine spray. A...

Diagnosis and Rescue of a Kinked Pulmonary Artery Catheter.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Mouawad NJ, Stein EJ, Moran KR, Go MR, Papadimos TJ.
PMID: 26075106
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2015;2015:567925. doi: 10.1155/2015/567925. Epub 2015 May 13.

Invasive hemodynamic monitoring with a pulmonary catheter has been relatively routine in cardiovascular and complex surgical operations as well as in the management of critical illnesses. However, due to multiple potential complications and its invasive nature, its use has...

Pneumomediastinum and Bilateral Pneumothoraces Causing Respiratory Failure after Thyroid Surgery.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Koeppen M, Scott B, Morabito J, Fiegel M, Eckle T.
PMID: 28523194
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2017;2017:8206970. doi: 10.1155/2017/8206970. Epub 2017 Apr 24.

We report the first case of severe respiratory failure after thyroid surgery requiring venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vvECMO). The patient was a 41-year-old woman with metastatic thyroid cancer. She underwent thyroidectomy, including left lateral and bilateral central neck dissection....

Uncommon Cause of Trigeminal Neuralgia: Tentorial Ossification over Trigeminal Notch.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Bang SW, Han KR, Kim SH, Jeong WH, Kim EJ, Choi JW, Kim C.
PMID: 26380124
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2015;2015:819354. doi: 10.1155/2015/819354. Epub 2015 Aug 24.

Ossification of the tentorium cerebelli over the trigeminal notch is rare, but it may cause compression of the trigeminal nerve, leading to trigeminal neuralgia (TN). We were unable to find any previously reported cases with radiological evaluation, although we...

Excessive Dynamic Airway Collapse: An Unexpected Contributor to Respiratory Failure in a Surgical Patient.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Lyaker MR, Davila VR, Papadimos TJ.
PMID: 26167306
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2015;2015:596857. doi: 10.1155/2015/596857. Epub 2015 Jun 08.

Central airway collapse plays a significant, underrecognized role in respiratory failure after extubation of critically ill patients. Historically, airway collapse has been attributed to tracheomalacia (TM), softening of the cartilage in the trachea and other large airways. More recently,...

Right Breast Mastectomy and Reconstruction with Tissue Expander under Thoracic Paravertebral Blocks in a 12-Week Parturient.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Webb CA, Weyker PD, Cohn S, Wheeler A, Lee J.
PMID: 26229692
Case Rep Anesthesiol. 2015;2015:842725. doi: 10.1155/2015/842725. Epub 2015 Jul 02.

Paravertebral blocks are becoming increasingly utilized for breast surgery with studies showing improved postoperative pain control, decreased need for opioids, and less nausea and vomiting. We describe the anesthetic management of an otherwise healthy woman who was 12 weeks...

Laparoscopic splenectomy in a child with moyamoya syndrome, hereditary spherocytosis, and interstitial lung disease: a mere coincidence or partnership based on genetic similarities.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Karvandian K, Khan ZH, Zebardast J, Miri SR.
PMID: 22606383

A case of moyamoya syndrome and spherocytosis with concurrent interstitial lung disease who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy is being reported. A theory regarding their coexistence is being forwarded together with their anesthetic management. According to our search, this is the...

Awake fibreoptic intubation in the sitting position in a patient with a huge goitre.

Case reports in anesthesiology

Saxena KN, Kumar S, Taneja B, Gaba P.
