Abstract:
Complications related to tracheal intuation are many, but intubation granuloma is a rare complication. The authors experienced a case of recurrent intubation granulomas in spite of removal of granuloma with CO2 LASER under suspension laryngosoopy. We used neuroleptic analgesia for the third operation in order to avoid tracheal intubation. The result was excellent after the third operation, and there was no recurrence noted for 8 months.
