Managing tracheal extubation in infants with stridor and congenital neuraxial anomalies
Stridor is a serious complication of congenital neuraxial anomalies, which though, can get completely resolved with early neurosurgical correction of the anomaly. However, stridor relief may or may not be achieved soon after surgery. Persistent postoperative stridor can potentially cause extubation failure that may be difficult to handle in small children. There are no extubation guidelines for...

متن کاملPost-extubation stridor in Down's syndrome.
Laryngeal oedema, giving rise to stridor, is a recognized although rare complication following extubation of the trachea in children. It was our clinical impression that children with Down's syndrome, in particular, had a tendency to develop obstruction of the airway following operation. In Down's syndrome there are many abnormalities which affect the face and skull: those affect' ing the airwa...
متن کاملIatrogenic tracheal flap mimicking tracheal stenosis with resultant stridor.
OBJECTIVE To illustrate a case of an iatrogenic mucosal tear in the trachea which caused a one-way valve effect, obstructing the airway and manifesting as post-extubation stridor. CASE REPORT We report a case of iatrogenic tracheal mucosal tear secondary to violent movement during intubation. The patient presented with post-extubation stridor that worsened over three days. Initial evidence su...
