Abstract

A 17-year-old adolescent boy presented for direct laryngoscopy, rigid bronchoscopy, laser ablation of tracheal scar, and possible tracheostomy. The innominate artery was lacerated during tracheostomy. We describe a unique approach toward ventilation in this case in which two separate endotracheal tubes were connected through a Carlens tube adaptor.
