title: Swallowed neonatal endotracheal tube.
abstract: We present a newborn infant who swallowed an endotracheal tube during resuscitation. A review of previous reports indicates that the swallowed tube does not significantly compromise respiration and the infant need suffer little injury if the tube is removed in an unhurried manner.
