title: [Management of one lung ventilation with bronchial blocker catheter for a patient with tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica].
abstract: Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica is a rare benign disease, with difficult airway for intubation because the trachea and bronchia are narrow and transformed. We experienced one lung ventilation for a patient with the lung cancer associated with the tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica. The Coopdech bronchial blocker is a device for one lung ventilation. We could actually manipulate the blocker balloon very easily and maintain complete one lung ventilation maintaining SpO2 well. Coopdech bronchial blocker is useful for one lung ventilation in a patient with difficult airway such as tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica.
