ABSTRACT

Large post intubation tracheal tears are usually detected intra-operatively due to unstable signs namely impaired ventilation and mediastinal emphysema and often require surgical management. Smaller tracheal tears are often missed during anaesthesia and recognized during the postoperative period. Conservative management should be considered in these latter cases.


Grandes desgarros traqueales tras una entubación se detectan usualmente intra-operativamente debido a señales inestables, a saber, ventilación defectuosa y enfisema del mediastino. Tales desgarros requieren a menudo tratamiento quirúrgico. Los desgarros traqueales menores no se ven a menudo durante la anestesia y se reconocen sólo durante el periodo postoperatorio. Un tratamiento conservador debe ser objeto de consideración en estos últimos casos.
