Abstract

Anesthetic management of patients with intratracheal mass lesions is fraught with pitfalls if the inherent problems are not anticipated and prepared for. We present here a case of a lower tracheal tumor near the carina undergoing general anesthesia for surgical resection with tracheal anastomosis. A brief review of pertinent literature is also included.
