Abstract

Unintentional intraoperative tracheal extubation can be potentially catastrophic, especially in patients with difficult airways. We describe a case in which extubation occurred during cervical spine decompression. Reintubation was facilitated with a Laryngeal Mask Airway and an Aintree intubation catheter.
