Abstract
- Blunt tracheobronchial injuries are rare, and usually lethal without aggressive and appropriate management. Recently, the incidence of tracheobronchial injuries has been increased with the increase of traffic accident and mechanization. We report a case of complete tracheal transection combined with a longitudinal rupture of the membranous portion of the trachea extending to the right main bronchus following blunt chest trauma, and review the anesthetic management.
