“…We read with interest the article by Kumar et al . [ 1 ] regarding a difficult airway rescue with the use of a modified open tracheostomy. The surgical airway is often used as a last resort for the rescue of a difficult airway.…”

Difficult airway is always of special concern to anesthesiologists, but in a trauma setting where having a secured airway is most important, the incidence of difficult airway increases manifold. We report a "cannot ventilate cannot intubate" situation in a trauma patient who was later diagnosed to have arthrogryposis multiplex congenita, a syndrome known to affect the airway, and in whom all measures of securing a nonsurgical airway failed.

An 83-year-old woman, with a background of treated squamous cell oesophageal cancer, presented with a 3-week history of stridor. Of note, the patient had no risk factors for oesophageal cancer other than age. Clinical examination was unremarkable apart from stridor. Laboratory investigations, including arterial blood gas on room air, were unremarkable. Radiological examination revealed a 4.5×3.5×3.6 cm mass involving the posterior trachea and invading the tracheal orifice. Oesophagogastroduodenoscopy and rigid bronchoscopy confirmed an extensive tumour arising from the lower oesophagus and invading the trachea, causing 90% airway obstruction for a 6 mm length ending 1.5 cm above the carina. Biopsy revealed a poorly differentiated carcinoma with foci of squamous cell carcinoma. Unfortunately, the patient passed away 2 months after palliative tracheal stent placement.
