[Sever acute pulmonary edema after peri-anesthetic laryngospasm in a newborn infant].
Severe acute pulmonary oedema following peranaesthetic laryngospasm in a newborn. The authors report a case of severe acute pulmonary oedema secondary to a laryngeal spasm in a 3-week-old neonate, immediately after induction of anaesthesia with halothane. After emergency tracheal intubation, the infant experienced a severe, life-threatening pulmonary oedema requiring prolonged intensive care. Such a secondary time course is unusual. Usually pulmonary oedema has a favourable outcome after oxygen administration and maintenance of positive expiration pressure, except in the neonate.
