  • Title: Acute laryngeal oedema following carotid endarterectomy.
    Author: Holdsworth RJ, McCollum PT.
    Journal: J Cardiovasc Surg (Torino); 1994 Jun; 35(3):249-51. PubMed ID: 8040175.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of acute laryngeal oedema are reported following carotid endarterectomy. Although the mechanisms of development of oedema differ in each case they both illustrate a potentially lethal complication of any form of neck surgery. The requirement for careful haemostasis and airway observation of patients for the first 24 hour after neck surgery is emphasised.
