Deskripsi
Tracheal stenosis is a rare complication of tracheal intubation, which usually becomes symptomatic after some time after detubation, with typical superior airway obstruction signs and symptoms. This is a case of a 62-yearold female with post intubation tracheal stenosis, with interesting problems of differential diagnosis until the final diagnostic was found. Clinical and imagistic investigations led us to our final diagnosis of iatrogenic post intubation tracheal stenosis.
