Anesthetic Management of Tracheal Stenosis Assisted with the Extracorporeal Life Support - A case report -

Abstract: In tracheal stenosis, airway management is most challenging for anesthesiologists. A small sized endotracheal tube, laryngeal mask airway, with high frequency jet ventilation can be used, but may result in ineffective oxygenation and ventilation. In such cases, extracorporeal life support, ECLS, can be helpful. Herein, a case of tracheal stenosis in an adult assisted with the ECLS is reported.

A patient diagnosed with advanced lung cancer developed severe dyspnea after chemotherapy. Metastatic tumor completely obstructing the lower trachea was revealed by bronchoscopy. Emergent surgery was required but it was difficult to perform open tracheal surgery and maintain sufficient ventilation with tracheal intubation because of location and size of the tumor. After consultation with an esthesiologist, respiratory physician and cardiothoracic surgeon, we performed surgery with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) without intubation. We report a rare case of a successfully removed metastatic tumor in the airway under the support of ECMO.

The airway management for patients with critical airway problems continues to be a challenge to the anesthesiologist. In general cases, conventional ventilation techniques have been used successfully. These include fiberoptic bronchoscope guided intubation, supraglottic airway, endotracheal or endobronchial intubation at operative field, high frequency jet ventilation, etc. However, patients with near-fatal airway obstruction or severely depressed pulmonary function that is refractory to conventional ventilation methods also present. In these cases, cardiopulmonary bypass or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can be used. Although these situations are uncommon indications for ECMO, ECMO can be a potential option for these life threatening conditions. Especially, venovenous (VV) ECMO can be used for pure pulmonary support. We describe three cases of airway surgery requiring ECMO. VV ECMO was established in all cases. ECMO provided adequate temporary pulmonary support and all patients weaned from ECMO successfully without any complication.
