ABSTRACT
A patient with a large bronchopleural fistula presents several intraoperative challenges for the anesthesiologist, particularly if bullae coexist bilaterally. Ideally, a double lumen tube is inserted while the patient is conscious or breathing spontaneously under general anesthesia to prevent possible tension pneumothorax in the contralateral lung due to positive-pressure ventilation and the possibility of inadequate ventilation due to an air leak from the fistula. However, we inserted a single lumen tube instead of a double lumen tube, because this patient had multiple giant bullae bilaterally and the contralateral lung tissue was almost completely compressed and destroyed. We report the use of a single lumen tube under volatile general anesthesia with synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation with small tidal volume. In addition, we used permissive hypercapnia to further minimize barotraumas. Due to permissive hypercapnia, there were no cardiovascular consequences.
