  Abstract

The use of tracheobronchial stents for compromised large airways is increasing. We provide a case series highlighting some of the complications of airway management in patients with tracheobronchial stents in situ and propose an approach for dealing with this potentially complicated situation.

Keywords: airway, complications; airway, patency; anaesthetic techniques, bronchoscopy; equipment, tracheobronchial stents.
