Endotracheal tube ignition during CO2 laser surgery of the larynx.
We report a case of endotracheal tube fire occurring during CO2 laser surgery of the larynx. The ignition of an endotracheal tube was thought to be caused by laser penetration of an unprotected portion of the tube during resection of vocal cord tumour. Fire hazard is inevitable when a laser is used in the path of combustible gases and in the presence of flammable objects. We discuss the methods...
متن کاملTracheostomy tube ignition during microlaryngeal surgery using diode laser: a case report.
Ignition of the tracheal tube during laser microlaryngeal surgery under general anesthesia is an uncommon complication with potentially serious consequences. We present here a case of a patient with glottic stenosis following endotracheal intubation, who experienced this potentially catastrophic combustion during endoscopic arytenoidectomy, using a diode laser under general anesthesia via 60% F...

متن کاملFire ignition during laser surgery in pet rodents
BACKGROUND Laser surgery is an attractive alternative to other means of section device in terms of tissue inflammation and interaction, which has been extensively used in human and veterinary medicine. Although accidental ignition during laser surgeries is sporadically reported in human medical literature, to the authors' knowledge this is the first report regarding laser-dependent fire ignitio...
متن کاملNew Metal Shield for the Endotracheal Tube during Laser Endolaryngeal Surgery
Introduction: To present and assess a newly designed autoclavable, reusable tube shield for an endotracheal tube (ETT) during laser laryngeal surgery. Materials and Methods: This study included patients scheduled for endolaryngeal laser surgery. A carbonated stainless-steel hemisphere shield (~1.5×0.6 mm) connected to a silk thread passing through a hole in its middle near upper edge was ...
