Abstract
Background: the tracheal stenosis has become one of the most frequent complications in the prolonged intubation and traffic accidents. It is necessary that approximately 20 % of the intubated or tracheostomized patient can present it.
Objective: to describe a case of media tracheal stenosis for prolonged intubation that she received surgical treatment in the Educational Surgical Clinical Military Hospital Dr. Octavio Concepción of the Pedraja in the 2017.
Clinical case: 28-years-old female patient, with antecedents of complicated breathing infection with an infective endocarditis for that it was necessary endotracheal intubation, this she was prolonged during nine days. She refers dyspnea that at the first went to the physical effort, then to become breathing difficulty in rest that alleviated in occasions to the position changes. To the physical exam was determined voice stridency, associated to intercostal and supraclavicular printing, with vesicular murmur diminished in both lung fields, associated to the presence of disseminated sibilant and hoarse rales. A computed axial tomography was performed where a severe tracheal stenosis is verified at level of the vertebral body D-1. The patient was subjected to surgical intervention in which it was proceeded to resection of the two tracheal rings corresponding to the stenosis with terminal anastomosis.
Conclusions: the stenosis tracheal, is a frequent complication because of the prolonged intubation, the physical exam, the laryngoscopy and the computed axial tomography are indispensable for the diagnosis and classification of the same one. The surgery with multidisciplinary team constitutes an important pillar in the result of the operation.
