Double-lumen endobronchial tubes were placed "blindly" in 23 patients undergoing thoracotomy. Clinical criteria suggested satisfactory positioning in all cases; however, subsequent fibreoptic bronchoscopy revealed malposition in 48%. Bronchoscopic findings included the inability to view the bronchial cuff, narrowing of the bronchial lumen of the tube at the level of the cuff and herniation of the cuff over the carina. The potential hazards associated with these findings are discussed.
23例开胸手术患者“盲目”插入双腔支气管导管。临床标准提示所有病例定位均满意;然而,随后的纤维支气管镜检查显示48%存在位置不当。支气管镜检查结果包括无法看到支气管套囊、套囊水平处导管支气管腔变窄以及套囊疝入隆突上方。讨论了与这些发现相关的潜在风险。
