Primary repair of a neonatal bronchial intubation injury

Journal of Pediatric Surgery
Ulysses McCannThomas Baesl

Abstract

Premature infants who require endotracheal intubation may be subject to iatrogenic tracheobronchial injuries. Such injuries are relatively rare, can be difficult to diagnose, and are often associated with poor outcomes. We report our experience with diagnosing and successfully treating a proximal bronchial perforation in a neonate by primary surgical repair.
