Recurrent endotracheal tube leak: ask and take a look.

摘要

Video laryngoscopy (VL) has emerged as one of the most clinically significant advances in airway management. Compared with direct laryngoscopy (DL), VL allows a superior view of the larynx without the need for direct alignment of structures. We report a case of an unexpected incidental finding that was not seen in two prior attempts at DL, that could have led to disastrous consequences if not addressed. The patient gave written consent for publication of this report.
