    Author: Carels K, Herpels V, Cardoen L, Lecluyse C, Traen S, Verschakelen J.
    Journal: JBR-BTR; 2013; 96(1):17-8. PubMed ID: 23610874.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of sudden onset of respiratory distress caused by pulmonary edema due to laryngospasm. The diagnosis was established by the clinical context and chest X-ray. A CT-scan was performed to narrow down the differential diagnosis and to confirm the diagnosis. Postextubation pulmonary edema due to laryngospasm is a rare entity with a typical clinical and radiographic presentation.
