Area of Science:
- Anesthesiology
- Orthopedic Surgery
Background:
- Patient presented with pseudarthrosis humeri requiring surgical intervention.
- History of polytrauma with cerebral contusion led to subglottic tracheal stenosis post-prolonged intubation.
- Previous surgery resulted in scar tissue, complicating conventional anesthesia.
