ANAESTHESIA FOR CARBON DIOXIDE LASER SURGERY ON THE TRACHEA
Taking Turns in the Airway
Regional Cardiothoracic Centre, Freeman Hospital Freeman Road, High Heaton, Newcastle-upon-Tyne NE7 7DN
A patient with post-tracheotomy stenosis underwent laser bronchoscopy. A total i.v. technique was used to maintain anaesthesia and provide a stable surgical field.
