Provide a brief summary of this surgical procedure and its indications here.

Indications[1]

  • Hemorrhage an infected abscess into a single lung requiring isolation
  • Controlled distributed ventilation for surgery
  • Bronchopleural fistula, large lung bulla and or cysts
  • Tracheobronchial disruption
  • Single-lung lavage for pulmonary alveolar proteinosis

Contraindications

  • Known difficult airway
  • Tracheal stenosis
  • Severe airway distortion

Setup

Operating room setup

  • DLT with appropriately chosen size
  • Laryngoscope (video or direct laryngoscope)
  • Syringes 3mL (bronchial cuff) and 10mL (tracheal cuff)
  • Fiberoptic bronchoscope for confirming post-placement position
  • Consider tooth guard to prevent shearing tracheal balloon during placement

Tube Selection Selection

  • Most single-lung ventilation procedures can be accomplished with a left-sided DLT
  • Right DLT indications
    • Left pneumonectomy
    • Left lung transplant
    • Trauma to the left mainstem bronchus[2]
    • Left tracheobronchial repair
    • Consider for left thoracoscopic lung procedures (can be accomplished with L-DLT as well)

Tube Size Selection

Several sources of literature help anesthesiologists choose the correct size DLT:

  1. Pedoto (2012)[2]
  2. Brodsky et al. (1999)[3]
  3. Hao etl al. (2021)[1]

Complications

  • Laryngitis
  • Tracheal irritation
  • Vocal cord palsy
  • Airway rupture or perforation (<1% total incidence[4]): trachea (52.4%) and left main bronchus (37.4%) are the most common sites[5]
