Cardiopulmonary crisis caused by bronchial blocker malposition in a patient with aberrant tracheal anatomy: a case report
Previewing chest computed tomography scans to assess the airway anatomy before thoracic surgery is essential. Three-dimensional reconstruction of the airway can provide a more intuitive assessment of airway anatomy. During OLV with BBs, we should pay attention to balloon malposition to prevent cardiopulmonary crises.
