  • Title: [The anesthetic management of tracheal T-tube exchange using Patil-Syracuse mask].
    Author: Obana N, Komatsu K, Komoda S, Sato H, Fuse M, Nakamura N, Kimura K.
    Journal: Masui; 1999 Apr; 48(4):386-9. PubMed ID: 10339937.
    Abstract:
    We exchanged the tracheal T-tube inserted to a 17-year-old female, who wanted to be able to enunciate again, with relapsing polychondritis and difficulty in enunciation which the proximal end of tracheal T-tube above the false vocal cords was causing. The procedure was performed using Patil-Syracuse mask, without tracheal intubation, under-general anesthesia. This method will ensure precise length adjustment and correct placement of the T-tube under fiberoptic bronchoscope.
