Airway management in tracheal resection and anastomosis – Challenges and novel solutions!

Abstract

Airway management in tracheal resection and anastomosis is very challenging. The technique of securing the airway depends on the degree and location of stenosis. Multidisciplinary planning and good communication are the keys to the successful management of these cases. The technique used to maintain the airway and ventilation may vary and needs to be chosen on a case-to-case basis.
