  • Title: Tracheal laceration from endotracheal intubation in a cat.
    Author: Wong WT, Brock KA.
    Journal: Vet Rec; 1994 Jun 11; 134(24):622-4. PubMed ID: 7941262.
    Abstract:
    Iatrogenic trauma to the upper airway as a result of the clinical use of endotracheal tubes has rarely been reported in domestic animals. This report describes a case of tracheal laceration in a cat after endotracheal intubation for a dental procedure under general anaesthesia. The diagnosis and successful management of the condition are discussed, and other complications of the use of cuffed endotracheal and tracheostomy tubes are considered.
