摘要
We report respiratory obstruction following surgery in the sitting position with tracheal intubation and placement of a transesophageal echocardiography probe. Obstruction was due to pharyngeal oedema, which resolved with 24 hours. The mechanisms of this complication are discussed. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
