ABSTRACT
Double lumen endobronchial tube (DLT) is used for lung separation in the surgical patients undergoing thoracic and mediastinal surgery. The use of DLT can lead to potential problems such as tube malposition and airway trauma. DLT can be placed in the inappropriate position due to abnormal and distorted anatomy of trachea or bronchus. We report a case of right main bronchial insertion of left-sided DLT by enlargement of paratracheal lymph node not detected in preoperative evaluations for 10 days.
