ProSeal Laryngeal Mask Airway (PLMA) (Teleflex Medical, Westmeath, Ireland) is a versatile and popular reusable supraglottic airway device. The manufacturer advises maximum reuse of up to 40 times. However, excessive reuse of the device can cause rare complications. Here, we report a rather uncommon complication of intraoperative cuff rupture of a PLMA probably due to the combination of a forceful metal introducer tip insertion and nitrous oxide-based anaesthesia.
普罗塞喉罩气道(PLMA)(泰利福医疗公司,爱尔兰韦斯特米斯)是一种多功能且常用的可重复使用的声门上气道装置。制造商建议该装置最多可重复使用40次。然而,过度重复使用该装置可能会导致罕见的并发症。在此,我们报告一例PLMA术中套囊破裂的相当罕见的并发症,可能是由于强力插入金属导入器尖端与基于氧化亚氮的麻醉共同作用所致。
