Abstract
We discuss a case of difficult extubation, due to inadequate deflation of the tracheal tube cuff, despite collapse of the pilot balloon, on its aspiration. This was caused by inadvertent kinking of the pilot balloon tubing due to inappropriate tape fixation of the endotracheal tube.Keywords: Cuff; Difficult extubation; Endotracheal; Endotraqueal; Extubação difícil; Fixation; Fixação; Manguito; Tube; Tubo
