Аннотация
PURPOSE: Report a case of a patient, who benefitted from the I-gel, during an elective urological surgery and who presented severe laryngeal hemorrhage at the time of its withdrawal.
CLINICAL FEATURES: A 71-year-old male patient had been admitted in the operating room for the insertion of a ureteral stent. He had a history of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) requiring corticosteroids and oxygen therapy and a severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome treated with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP). After intravenous induction of anesthesia, a size 5 I-gel (Intersurgical, Wokhingam, UK) was easily inserted in the first attempt. Anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane. As soon as the procedure ended, the I-Gel was removed. After two minutes, the patient presented a respiratory distress and started spitting significant quantity of blood. Oropharyngeal fiberscopy was performed in emergency and highlighted active bleeding of the left aryepiglottic fold. Hemostasis was obtained by local compression. The patient was transferred to the intensive care unit. He was extubated the following day without complications. No additional procedure was necessary to stop the bleeding.
CONCLUSION: Authors reported the first severe complication associated with the use of size 5 I-gel. Additional studies have to be carried out to specify the advantages and risks associated with the use of this recent material.
