Popis: | The obstruction of an endotracheal tube with the patient in the prone position creates major anaesthetic difficulties that may result in patient morbidity and mortality. We describe a case involving the clearing of a blocked endotracheal tube with an arterial embolectomy catheter and discuss the relevance to anaesthetic practice. |
