Tracheal necrosis following tracheal intubation in a dog

B Alderson et al. J Small Anim Pract. 2006 Dec.

Abstract

Tracheal rupture and stenosis are well-reported problems in human beings and cats following endotracheal intubation. However, this problem has been rarely reported in dogs. This case report describes a case of tracheal necrosis 5 days following endotracheal intubation in a dog associated with overinflation of the endotracheal tube cuff and multiple changes in position.
