摘要
Patients with a mediastinal mass are at risk of life threatening complications in peri-operative period. Compression of the heart and great vessels and collapse or occlusion of the trachea and main bronchi are well known cardiorespiratory complications in these patients. The anaesthetic management of a patient with a massive mediastinal mass that resulted in intrathoracic airway obstruction during induction of general anaesthesia is discussed.
