    Journal: Masui; 1998 Jul; 47(7):856-60. PubMed ID: 9720335.
    Abstract:
    We experienced nine cases of general anesthesia for tracheobronchial stent insertion. As far as possible, we anesthetized the patients under spontaneous respiration with inhalation anesthesia, depending on the types of the tracheobronchial stent (Dumon stent or expandable metallic stent), or respiratory status of the patient. Having experienced a case requiring PCPS (percutaneous cardiopulmonary support) to recover from severe ventilatory insufficiency due to tracheal perforation, we, in advance, inserted 18- or 20-gage cannulas into the femoral artery and vein for PCPS standby, and could manage general anesthesia safely for tracheobronchial stent insertion.
