  • Title: Montgomery T-tube: anesthetic management.
    Author: Agrawal S, Payal YS, Sharma JP, Meher R, Varshney S.
    Journal: J Clin Anesth; 2007 Mar; 19(2):135-7. PubMed ID: 17379127.
    Abstract:
    The Montgomery T-tube is a device used as a combined tracheal stent and airway after laryngotracheoplasty. It is a valuable option in the management of upper and mid-tracheal lesions. Because its use is sporadic, many anesthesiologists may not be familiar with this device, and its anesthetic management may pose a challenge. Safe management of such patients requires careful planning. We describe different techniques of anaesthetic management in two cases of injuries to the throat, for which this tube was inserted as a tracheal stent.
