Popis:	Endotracheal tube (ETT) damage during head and neck surgeries is an uncommon complication needing quick corrective action to avoid hypoxia and aspiration of blood into lungs. Our case illustrates an unanticipated complication created during partial maxillectomy by a reciprocating motor saw. Accidental near-total transection of ETT was successfully managed by a novel technique of reintubation guided by an airway exchange catheter placed alongside the damaged ETT.
