Lung nodule, tracheal stenoses and coronary disease: how to approach when are all associated to?
A 67-year-old male patient underwent exploratory thoracotomy for pulmonary nodule resection. The patient presented a cardiorespiratory arrest during anesthesia due to myocardium infarction. After reanimation the patient was referred to ICU where he remained intubated for 7 days. Subsequently, he developed cervical tracheal stenosis. At first, the patient underwent a myocardium revascularization followed by surgical resection of tracheal stenosis through tracheoplasty.
